Mechanistic insights into the three steps of poly(ADP-ribosylation) reversal
PARG and ARH3 are the main hydrolases to reverse serine poly(ADP-ribosylation) yet their activities in the process differ. Here, the authors synthesise linear and branched poly(ADP-ribose) molecules, perform structure-function analysis and elucidate the ...

Radiosensitization with an inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase: A comparison with the PARP1/2/3 inhibitor olaparib [PDF]
Upon DNA binding the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family of enzymes (PARPs) add multiple ADP-ribose subunits to themselves and other acceptor proteins.

Cellular bases of the RNA metabolism dysfunction in motor neurons of a murine model of spinal muscular atrophy: Role of Cajal bodies and the nucleolus [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by a homozygous deletion or mutation in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene that leads to reduced levels of SMN protein resulting in degeneration of motor neurons (MNs).

Preparation and Self-Assembly of pH-Responsive Hyperbranched Polymer Peptide Hybrid Materials
In recent years, the coupling of structurally and functionally controllable polymers with biologically active peptide materials to obtain polymer-peptide hybrids with excellent properties and biocompatibility has led to important research progress in the

Fine-tuning of Smad protein function by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase during transforming growth factor β signaling. [PDF]
Initiation, amplitude, duration and termination of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling via Smad proteins is regulated by post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, ubiquitination and acetylation.

Methylation status of Dnmt1 promoter depends on poly(ADP-ribosy)lation [PDF]
Research is focused on CpG islands and on the mechanism that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation uses to defend the unmethylated state of these important DNA sequences which are located in the promoter regions of the housekeeping genes having a role of transcription ...

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating enzymes cooperate to coordinate development
The transcriptome is subject to rapid and massive changes during the transition between developmental stages. These changes require tight control to avoid the undesired reactivation of gene expression that is only important for previous developmental ...

Purification of Recombinant Human PARG and Activity Assays [PDF]
The purification of Poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) from overexpressing bacteria Escherichia coli is described here to a fast and reproducible one chromatographic step protocol. After cell lysis, GST-PARG-fusion proteins from the crude extract are affinity purified by a Glutathione 4B Sepharose chromatographic step.
