Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) are key enzymes in the DNA repair pathway. Inhibitors of these enzymes belong to a new type of anticancer drugs that selectively kill cancer cells by targeting the homologous recombination genetic defects.

ADP-ribosylation: from molecular mechanisms to human disease [PDF]
Post-translational modification of proteins by ADP-ribosylation, catalysed by poly (ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) using NAD+ as a substrate, plays central roles in DNA damage signalling and repair, modulates a range of cellular signalling cascades and ...

Structures of the human poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase catalytic domain confirm catalytic mechanism and explain inhibition by ADP-HPD derivatives. [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) is the only enzyme known to catalyse hydrolysis of the O-glycosidic linkages of ADP-ribose polymers, thereby reversing the effects of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases.

The Dichotomy of the Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase-Like Thermozyme from Sulfolobus solfataricus
The first evidence of an ADP-ribosylating activity in Archaea was obtained in Sulfolobus solfataricus(strain MT-4) where a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-like thermoprotein, defined with the acronymous PARPSso, was found.

PARP12 is required for mitochondrial function maintenance in thermogenic adipocytes
PARP12 is a member of poly-ADP-ribosyl polymerase (PARPs), which has been characterized for its antiviral function. Yet its physiological implication in adipocytes remains unknown.

VERO cells harbor a poly-ADP-ribose belt partnering their epithelial adhesion belt [PDF]
Poly-ADP-ribose (PAR) is a polymer of up to 400 ADP-ribose units synthesized by poly-ADP-ribose-polymerases (PARPs) and degraded by poly-ADP-ribose-glycohydrolase (PARG).

Novel modulators of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase [PDF]
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 has an important role in regulating cell death and cellular responses to DNA repair. Pharmacological inhibitors of PARP have entered clinical testing as cytoprotective agents in cardiovascular diseases and as adjunct antitumor therapeutics.
