Chromosomal macrodomains and associated proteins: implications for DNA organization and replication in gram negative bacteria. [PDF]
The Escherichia coli chromosome is organized into four macrodomains, the function and organisation of which are poorly understood. In this review we focus on the MatP, SeqA, and SlmA proteins that have recently been identified as the first examples of ...

The Conserved Coronavirus Macrodomain Promotes Virulence and Suppresses the Innate Immune Response during Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Infection [PDF]
ADP-ribosylation is a common posttranslational modification that may have antiviral properties and impact innate immunity. To regulate this activity, macrodomain proteins enzymatically remove covalently attached ADP-ribose from protein targets.

Molecular docking study and molecular dynamics simulation of spice metabolites against main protease enzymes and NSP3 macrodomain SARS CoV-2 [PDF]
COVID-19 is still a global pandemic. The transmission is very fast and wide. Its prevalence continues to increase. There is no specific antiviral drug for SARS CoV 2 yet.

The coronavirus macrodomain is required to prevent PARP-mediated inhibition of virus replication and enhancement of IFN expression. [PDF]
ADP-ribosylation is a ubiquitous post-translational addition of either monomers or polymers of ADP-ribose to target proteins by ADP-ribosyltransferases, usually by interferon-inducible diphtheria toxin-like enzymes known as PARPs.

Family-wide analysis of human macrodomains reveals novel activities and identifies PARG as most efficient ADPr-RNA hydrolase [PDF]
ADP-ribosylation is well-known as protein posttranslational modification and was recently also identified as RNA posttranscriptional modification. When macrodomain proteins were identified as protein ADP-ribosylhydrolases, several ADP-ribosylation ...

Cell type-dependent induction of type I interferon and PARP1 activation in astrocytes and neurons during chikungunya virus infection [PDF]
Chikungunya virus, a mosquito-borne alphavirus, causes fever, rash, arthritis, and neurological disorders. Its non-structural protein 3 harbors a macrodomain, a key neurovirulence factor that removes adenosine diphosphate ribose from ADP-ribosylated ...

Structure-Based Rational Design of a Selective Hydrolase Inhibitor of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 Nsp3 Macrodomain. [PDF]
Structure‐guided design of a sulfamoyl‐modified analog of GS‐441524 yielded a selective, high‐affinity inhibitor of the SARS‐CoV‐2 macrodomain Nsp3b. The compound occupies the phosphate‐binding pocket, forming a stabilizing hydrogen‐bond network that enhances binding affinity (K_D = 0.86 μM).

Fragment binding to the Nsp3 macrodomain of SARS-CoV-2 identified through crystallographic screening and computational docking [PDF]
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) macrodomain within the nonstructural protein 3 counteracts host-mediated antiviral adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation signaling.

ADP-ribosylation: An emerging regulator of the epigenome. [PDF]
ADP‐ribosylation has emerged as a dynamic epigenetic signaling mechanism that modifies histones and chromatin‐associated proteins. Through coordinated PARylation and MARylation, it integrates with other histone modifications to regulate chromatin structure, transcription factor activity, and gene expression, influencing genome function and disease ...
