Poly(ADP-ribose) and cancer research [PDF]
Carcinogenesis is a multistep process initiated by DNA damage, gene mutation, gene rearrangment and gene translocation, and ending with phenotypic transformation to cancer cells. Seventeen years ago, a unique enzymatic reaction was found. This reaction was catalyzed by a nuclear enzyme which polymerizes ADP-ribose residues of /3-NAD + to make poly(ADP ...

Chromosomal instability syndromes are sensitive to poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors
Poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors have been shown to target cells with homologous recombination DNA repair defects. We report that poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors induces apoptosis in cells deficient in other key DNA repair components ...

The XRCC1 phosphate-binding pocket binds poly (ADP-ribose) and is required for XRCC1 function [PDF]
Poly (ADP-ribose) is synthesized at DNA single-strand breaks and can promote the recruitment of the scaffold protein, XRCC1. However, the mechanism and importance of this process has been challenged.

Poly(ADP-Ribose) Links the DNA Damage Response and Biomineralization
Summary: Biomineralization of the extracellular matrix is an essential, regulated process. Inappropriate mineralization of bone and the vasculature has devastating effects on patient health, yet an integrated understanding of the chemical and cell ...

Visualization of poly(ADP-ribose) bound to PARG reveals inherent balance between exo- and endo-glycohydrolase activities [PDF]
Poly-ADP-ribosylation is a post-translational modification that regulates processes involved in genome stability. Breakdown of the poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymer is catalysed by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), whose endo-glycohydrolase activity ...

Inhibiting poly(ADP-ribosylation) improves axon regeneration
The ability of a neuron to regenerate its axon after injury depends in part on its intrinsic regenerative potential. Here, we identify novel intrinsic regulators of axon regeneration: poly(ADP-ribose) glycohodrolases (PARGs) and poly(ADP-ribose ...

Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase Inhibitors [PDF]
This session not only described several poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors but also included talks on the science of nuclear excision repair, an oxidized glutathione, and a heat shock protein (HSP) 90 inhibitor. SUMMARY OF PRESENTATIONS Science of Nuclear Excision Repair Dr.

PARP-1 dependent recruitment of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated protein FUS/TLS to sites of oxidative DNA damage [PDF]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is associated with progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Several of the genes associated with this disease encode proteins involved in RNA processing, including fused-in-sarcoma/translocated-in-sarcoma (FUS/TLS ...

The importance of Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase as a sensor of unligated Okazaki fragments during DNA replication [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribose) is synthesized by PARP enzymes during the repair of stochastic DNA breaks. Surprisingly, however, we show that most if not all endogenous poly(ADP-ribose) is detected in normal S phase cells at sites of DNA replication. This S phase poly(

5mC-hydroxylase activity is influenced by the PARylation of TET1 enzyme [PDF]
5-hydroxymethylcytosine is a new epigenetic modification deriving from the oxidation of 5-methylcytosine by the TET hydroxylase enzymes. DNA hydroxymethylation drives DNA demethylation events and is involved in the control of gene expression ...
