Promotion of a synthetic degradation of activated STAT6 by PARP-1 inhibition: roles of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, calpains and autophagy [PDF]
Background We reported that PARP-1 regulates genes whose products are crucial for asthma, in part, by controlling STAT6 integrity speculatively through a calpain-dependent mechanism.

Inputs and outputs of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation: Relevance to oxidative stress [PDF]
Oxidative stress can cause DNA breaks which induce activation of the DNA nick sensor enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), part of the 17 member PARP enzyme family.

Flow-cytometric assessment of cellular poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation capacity in peripheral blood lymphocytes [PDF]
Background Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a posttranslational modification of nuclear proteins catalysed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs), using NAD+ as a substrate.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation acts in the DNA demethylation of mouse primordial germ cells also with DNA damage-independent roles. [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation regulates chromatin structure and transcription driving epigenetic events. In particular, Parp1 is able to directly influence DNA methylation patterns controlling transcription and activity of Dnmt1.

Versatile and sensitive detection of mono- and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation reveals XRCC1-dependent remodelling of PARP1 signalling [PDF]
ADP-ribosylation has long been recognised as a key regulator of essential signalling pathways, including the DNA damage response. However, only recent and ongoing technological advances are beginning to make it possible to investigate its distinct forms ...

Chromatin composition is changed by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation during chromatin immunoprecipitation. [PDF]
Chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP) employs generally a mild formaldehyde cross-linking step, which is followed by isolation of specific protein-DNA complexes and subsequent PCR testing, to analyze DNA-protein interactions.

Inhibition of poly(ADP-Ribosyl)ation reduced vascular smooth muscle cells loss and improves aortic disease in a mouse model of human accelerated aging syndrome [PDF]
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is an extremely rare genetic disorder associated with features of accelerated aging. HGPS is an autosomal dominant disease caused by a de novo mutation of LMNA gene, encoding A-type lamins, resulting in the ...

The Histone Methyltransferase SMYD2 Methylates PARP1 and Promotes Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation Activity in Cancer Cells [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) catalyzes the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of protein acceptors using NAD+ as the substrate is now considered as an important target for development of anticancer therapy. PARP1 is known to be post-translationally modified

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of p53 In Vitro and In Vivo Modulates Binding to its DNA Consensus Sequence [PDF]
The tumor-suppresser p53 undergoes extensive poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation early during apoptosis in human osteosarcoma cells, and degradation of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) attached to p53 coincides with poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1, (PARP-1) cleavage, and ...

Protein poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation regulates arabidopsis immune gene expression and defense responses. [PDF]
Perception of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) elicits transcriptional reprogramming in hosts and activates defense to pathogen attacks. The molecular mechanisms underlying plant pattern-triggered immunity remain elusive.
