Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

TTV Species Diversity as a Novel Biomarker of Immune Dysregulation in Aging
ABSTRACT Torquetenovirus (TTV) is a prevalent virus whose clinical significance remains unclear, potentially linked to immunosenescence. This study examines TTV species in relation to immune impairment, inflammation, and cellular stress response in aging.

LAP2α preserves genome integrity through assisting RPA deposition on damaged chromatin
Background Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) coated with replication protein A (RPA) acts as a key platform for the recruitment and exchange of genome maintenance factors in DNA damage response. Yet, how the formation of the ssDNA-RPA intermediate is regulated

Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) signaling network is modulated by a novel poly (ADP-ribose) dependent pathway in the early response to DNA-damaging agents [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a post-translational modification that is instantly stimulated by DNA strand breaks creating a unique signal for the modulation of protein functions in DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoint pathways.

Biological Roles of Mono- and Poly (ADP-Ribosyl) ation
Biological roles of mono- and poly (ADP-ribosyl) ation reactions are reviewed, along with analysis of functional sequences of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase and inhibitors of the synthetase compared with mono (ADP-ribosyl) transferase.

Effect of zinc on cellular poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation capacity [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a posttranslational protein modification, which is catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and plays a role in DNA repair and maintenance of genomic stability. A decrease in cellular poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has been implicated in the aging process.

Molecular mechanism of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation by PARP1 and identification of lysine residues as ADP-ribose acceptor sites [PDF]
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) synthesizes poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) using nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) as a substrate. Despite intensive research on the cellular functions of PARP1, the molecular mechanism of PAR formation has not been ...

PARP1 promotes nucleotide excision repair through DDB2 stabilization and recruitment of ALC1 [PDF]
The WD40-repeat protein DDB2 is essential for efficient recognition and subsequent removal of ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA lesions by nucleotide excision repair (NER). However, how DDB2 promotes NER in chromatin is poorly understood.
