RESUMO
ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a reversible post-translation modification resulting in the covalent attachment of ADP-ribose (ADPR) moieties on substrate proteins. Naturally occurring protein motifs and domains, including WWEs, PBZs, and macrodomains, act as 'readers' for protein-linked ADPR. Although recombinant, antibody-like ADPR detection reagents containing these readers have facilitated the detection of ADPR, they are limited in their ability to capture the dynamic nature of ADPRylation. Herein, we describe and characterize a set of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) Trackers (PAR-Ts)-optimized dimerization-dependent or split-protein reassembly PAR sensors in which a naturally occurring PAR binding domain, WWE, was fused to both halves of dimerization-dependent GFP (ddGFP) or split Nano Luciferase (NanoLuc), respectively. We demonstrate that these new tools allow the detection and quantification of PAR levels in extracts, living cells, and living tissues with greater sensitivity, as well as temporal and spatial precision. Importantly, these sensors detect changes in cellular ADPR levels in response to physiological cues (e.g., hormone-dependent induction of adipogenesis without DNA damage), as well as xenograft tumor tissues in living mice. Our results indicate that PAR Trackers have broad utility for detecting ADPR in many different experimental and biological systems.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor worldwide. Recent researches have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) could affect the progress of HCC, but the mechanism is still indistinct. In this work, we explored the roles of circRNA_0016788 in HCC. METHODS: The levels of hsa_circ_0016788, microRNA-506-3p (miR-506-3p), and mRNA of poly-adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase, member 14 (PARP14) were detected by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in HCC tissues. Meanwhile, the level of PARP14 was quantified by Western blot analysis. Besides, the cell functions were examined by commercial kit, Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, EdU assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometry assay, Western blot, and transwell assay. Furthermore, the interplay between miR-506-3p and hsa_circ_0016788 or PARP14 was detected by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Eventually, the in vivo experiments were applied to measure the role of hsa_circ_0016788. RESULTS: The levels of hsa_circ_0016788 and PARP14 were upregulated, and the miR-506-3p level was decreased in HCC tissues in contrast to that in normal tissues. For functional analysis, hsa_circ_0016788 deficiency inhibited cell glycolysis metabolism, cell vitality, cell proliferation, colony formation, and invasion in HCC cells whereas promoted cell apoptosis. Moreover, miR-506-3p was confirmed to repress the progression of HCC cells by suppressing PARP14. In mechanism, hsa_circ_0016788 acted as a miR-506-3p sponge to regulate the level of PARP14. In addition, hsa_circ_0016788 knockdown also inhibited tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSION: Hsa_circ_0016788 facilitates the development of HCC through increasing PARP14 expression by regulating miR-506-3p, which also offered an underlying targeted therapy for HCC treatment.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) is a multifaceted post-translational modification, carried out by poly(ADP-ribosyl)transferases (poly-ARTs, PARPs), which play essential roles in (patho-) physiology, as well as cancer therapy. Using NAD+ as a substrate, acceptors, such as proteins and nucleic acids, can be modified with either single ADP-ribose units or polymers, varying considerably in length and branching. Recently, the importance of PAR structural heterogeneity with regards to chain length and branching came into focus. Here, we provide a concise overview on the current knowledge of the biochemical and physiological significance of such differently structured PAR. There is increasing evidence revealing that PAR's structural diversity influences the binding characteristics of its readers, PAR catabolism, and the dynamics of biomolecular condensates. Thereby, it shapes various cellular processes, such as DNA damage response and cell cycle regulation. Contrary to the knowledge on the consequences of PAR's structural diversity, insight into its determinants is just emerging, pointing to specific roles of different PARP members and accessory factors. In the future, it will be interesting to study the interplay with other post-translational modifications, the contribution of natural PARP variants, and the regulatory role of accessory molecules. This has the exciting potential for new therapeutic approaches, with the targeted modulation and tuning of PARPs' enzymatic functions, rather than their complete inhibition, as a central premise.

The histone demethylase KDM5A erases histone H3 lysine 4 methylation, which is involved in transcription and DNA damage responses (DDRs). While DDR functions of KDM5A have been identified, how KDM5A recognizes DNA lesion sites within chromatin is unknown. Here, we identify two factors that act upstream of KDM5A to promote its association with DNA damage sites. We have identified a noncanonical poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR)-binding region unique to KDM5A. Loss of the PAR-binding region or treatment with PAR polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi's) blocks KDM5A-PAR interactions and DNA repair functions of KDM5A. The histone variant macroH2A1.2 is also specifically required for KDM5A recruitment and function at DNA damage sites, including homology-directed repair of DNA double-strand breaks and repression of transcription at DNA breaks. Overall, this work reveals the importance of PAR binding and macroH2A1.2 in KDM5A recognition of DNA lesion sites that drive transcriptional and repair activities at DNA breaks within chromatin that are essential for maintaining genome integrity.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a nuclear protein that is activated by binding to DNA lesions and catalyzes poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of nuclear acceptor proteins, including PARP1 itself, to recruit DNA repair machinery to DNA lesions. When excessive DNA damage occurs, poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) produced by PARP1 is translocated to the cytoplasm, changing the activity and localization of cytoplasmic proteins, e.g., apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), hexokinase, and resulting in cell death. This cascade, termed parthanatos, is a caspase-independent programmed cell death distinct from necrosis and apoptosis. In contrast, PARP1 is a substrate of activated caspases 3 and 7 in caspase-dependent apoptosis. Once cleaved, PARP1 loses its activity, thereby suppressing DNA repair. Caspase cleavage of PARP1 occurs within a nuclear localization signal near the DNA-binding domain, resulting in the formation of 24-kDa and 89-kDa fragments. In the present study, we found that caspase activation by staurosporine- and actinomycin D-induced PARP1 autopoly(ADP-ribosyl)ation and fragmentation, generating poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated 89-kDa and 24-kDa PARP1 fragments. The 89-kDa PARP1 fragments with covalently attached PAR polymers were translocated to the cytoplasm, whereas 24-kDa fragments remained associated with DNA lesions. In the cytoplasm, AIF binding to PAR attached to the 89-kDa PARP1 fragment facilitated its translocation to the nucleus. Thus, the 89-kDa PARP1 fragment is a PAR carrier to the cytoplasm, inducing AIF release from mitochondria. Elucidation of the caspase-mediated interaction between apoptosis and parthanatos pathways extend the current knowledge on mechanisms underlying programmed cell death and may lead to new therapeutic targets.

Vital biological processes such as genome repair require fast and efficient binding of selected proteins to specific target sites on DNA. Here we propose an active target search mechanism based on "chromophoresis," the dynamics of DNA-binding proteins up or down gradients in the density of epigenetic marks, or colors (biochemical tags on the genome). We focus on a set of proteins that deposit marks from which they are repelled-a case which is only encountered away from thermodynamic equilibrium. For suitable ranges of kinetic parameter values, chromophoretic proteins can perform undirectional motion and are optimally redistributed along the genome. Importantly, they can also locally unravel a region of the genome which is collapsed due to self-interactions and "dive" deep into its core, for a striking enhancement of the efficiency of target search on such an inaccessible substrate. We discuss the potential relevance of chromophoresis for DNA repair.

The mechanisms that contribute to retinal tissue destruction during the onset and progression of AIDS-related human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) retinitis remain unclear. Evidence for the stimulation of multiple cell death pathways including apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis during the pathogenesis of experimental murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) retinitis in mice with retrovirus-induced immunosuppression (MAIDS) has been reported. Parthanatos is a caspase-independent cell death pathway mediated by rapid overactivation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and distinct from other cell death pathways. Using the MAIDS model of MCMV retinitis, studies were performed to test the hypothesis that intraocular MCMV infection of mice with MAIDS stimulates parthanatos-associated messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and proteins within the eye during the development of retinal necrosis that takes place by 10 days after MCMV infection. MCMV-infected eyes of MAIDS mice exhibited significant stimulation of PARP-1 mRNA and proteins at 3 days after infection but declined thereafter at 6 and 10 days after infection. Additional studies showed the intraocular stimulation of mRNAs or proteins before MCMV retinitis development for two additional participants in parthanatos, polymer of ADP-ribose and poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. These results provide new evidence for a role for parthanatos during MAIDS-related MCMV retinitis that may also extend to AIDS-related HCMV retinitis.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (aka PARylation) is a unique protein post-translational modification (PTM) first described over 50 years ago. PARylation regulates a number of biological processes including chromatin remodeling, the DNA damage response (DDR), transcription, apoptosis, and mitosis. The subsequent discovery of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) catalyzing DNA-dependent PARylation spearheaded the field of DDR. The expanding knowledge about the poly ADP-ribose (PAR) recognition domains prompted the discovery of novel DDR factors and revealed crosstalk with other protein PTMs including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, methylation and acetylation. In this review, we highlight the current knowledge on PAR-regulated DDR, PAR recognition domain, and PARP inhibition in cancer therapy.

Due to multiple domains and in part intrinsically disordered regions, structural analyses of p53 remain a challenging task, particularly in complex with DNA and other macromolecules. Here, we applied a novel attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopic approach to investigate changes in secondary structure of full-length p53 induced by non-covalent interactions with DNA and poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR). To validate our approach, we confirmed a positive regulatory function of p53's C-terminal domain (CTD) with regard to sequence-specific DNA binding and verified that the CTD mediates p53-PAR interaction. Further, we demonstrate that DNA and PAR interactions result in distinct structural changes of p53, indicating specific binding mechanisms via different domains. A time-dependent analysis of the interplay of DNA and PAR binding to p53 revealed that PAR represents p53's preferred binding partner, which efficiently controls p53-DNA interaction. Moreover, we provide infrared spectroscopic data on PAR pointing to the absence of regular secondary structural elements. Finally, temperature-induced melting experiments via CD spectroscopy show that DNA binding stabilizes the structure of p53, while PAR binding can shift the irreversible formation of insoluble p53 aggregates to higher temperatures. In conclusion, this study provides detailed insights into the dynamic interplay of p53 binding to DNA and PAR at a formerly inaccessible molecular level.

XRCC1 accelerates repair of DNA single-strand breaks by acting as a scaffold protein for the recruitment of Polß, LigIIIα, and end-processing factors, such as PNKP and APTX. XRCC1 itself is recruited to DNA damage through interaction of its central BRCT domain with poly(ADP-ribose) chains generated by PARP1 or PARP2. XRCC1 is believed to interact directly with DNA at sites of damage, but the molecular basis for this interaction within XRCC1 remains unclear. We now show that the central BRCT domain simultaneously mediates interaction of XRCC1 with poly(ADP-ribose) and DNA, through separate and non-overlapping binding sites on opposite faces of the domain. Mutation of residues within the DNA binding site, which includes the site of a common disease-associated human polymorphism, affects DNA binding of this XRCC1 domain in vitro and impairs XRCC1 recruitment and retention at DNA damage and repair of single-strand breaks in vivo.

Although stress-induced synthesis of mono(ADP-ribose) (mADPr) and poly(ADP-ribose) (pADPr) conjugates by pADPr polymerase (PARP) enzymes has been studied extensively, the removal and degradation of pADPr, as well as the fate of ADPr metabolites, have received less attention. The observations that stress-induced pADPr undergoes rapid turnover, and that deficiencies in ADPr degradation phenocopy loss of pADPr synthesis, suggest that ADPr degradation is fundamentally important to the cellular stress response. Recent work has identified several distinct families of pADPr hydrolases that can degrade pADPr to release pADPr or mADPr into the cytoplasm. Further, many stress-response proteins contain ADPr-binding domains that can interact with these metabolites. We discuss how pADPr metabolites generated during pADPr degradation can function as signaling intermediates in processes such as inflammation, apoptosis, and DNA damage responses. These studies highlight that the full cycle of ADPr metabolism, including both synthesis and degradation, is necessary for responses to genotoxic stress.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) is a post-translational modification by which poly ADP-ribose (PAR) polymers are covalently added to proteins through a PAR polymerase (PARP). Here, using proteomic approach, we identify the transcriptional regulator, OVOL2, is a novel substrate of PARP1 and can be PARylated at residues Lysine 145, Lysine 176, and Lysine 212 within its C2H2 zinc finger domains. Overexpression of PARylated OVOL2 alters cell morphology and induces lagging chromosomes and aneuploidy. To define the underlying molecular mechanism by which OVOL2 induces abnormal cell cycle and centrosome amplification, we uncover that the OVOL2 elevates the protein levels of Cyclin E by enhancing its stability. Furthermore, we identify Skp2, the E3 ubiquitin ligase of Cyclin E, as a direct target of PARylated OVOL2. Using ChIP assay, the OVOL2 binding site on the promoter region of Skp2 is mapped. To further explore the physiological effect, we show that PARylated OVOL2 can induce cell death. Furthermore, to investigate PARylated OVOL2 function in vivo, we further develop a null-mice xenograft model and generate MMTV-PyVT transgenic mice and monitor the effect of wild-type OVOL2 and non-PARylated OVOL2-3K/A mutants on tumor progression. Consistently, overexpression of wild-type OVOL2 in both null-mice xenograft and MMTV-PyVT transgenic mice displays significantly reduction of tumor progression, respectively, further indicating that the function of OVOL2 as a tumor suppressor in vivo is highly regulated by PARylation. Taken together, our study sheds new light on PARP1-induced PARylation as a critical event in the OVOL2-mediated regulation of chromosomal integrity and suppression of cancer cells growth.

The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family of proteins utilize NAD+ as the substrate to modify protein acceptors with either mono(ADP-ribose) (MAR) or poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR). MAR and PAR have been shown to regulate distinct cellular processes. Iso-ADP-ribose (iso-ADPr) is the smallest internal PAR structural unit containing the characteristic ribose-ribose glycosidic bond formed during poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. The WWE domain of RNF146 specifically recognizes the iso-ADPr moiety in PAR but does not interact with MAR. This provides a way to distinguish PAR from MAR modification and to isolate PARylated proteins. Iso-ADPr can be used to detect the PAR-specific binding properties of interested proteins. Here we describe the detailed method to generate and purify iso-ADPr and its use in PAR-binding analysis through isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) analysis.

ADP-ribosylation is a covalent posttranslational modification of proteins that is catalyzed by various types of ADP-ribosyltransferase (ART) enzymes, including members of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family. ADP-ribose (ADPR) modifications can occur as mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation, oligo(ADP-ribosyl)ation, or poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, depending on the particular ART enzyme catalyzing the reaction, as well as the specific reaction conditions. Understanding the biology of ADP-ribosylation requires facile and robust means of generating and detecting the modification in all of its forms. Here we describe how to generate protein-linked mono(ADP-ribose), oligo(ADP-ribose), and poly(ADP-ribose) (MAR, OAR, and PAR, respectively) in vitro as an automodification of PARPs 1 or 3. First, epitope-tagged PARP-1 (a PARP polyenzyme) and PARP-3 (a PARP monoenzyme) are expressed individually in insect cells using baculovirus expression vectors, and purified using immunoaffinity chromatography. Second, the purified recombinant PARPs are incubated individually in the presence of different concentrations of NAD+ (as a donor of ADPR groups) and sheared DNA (to activate their catalytic activities) resulting in various forms of auto-ADP-ribosylation. Third, the products are confirmed using ADPR detection reagents that can distinguish among MAR, OAR, and PAR. Finally, if desired, the OAR and PAR can be deproteinized. The protein-linked and free MAR, OAR, and PAR generated in these reactions can be used as standards, substrates, or binding partners in a variety of ADPR-related assays.

The amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is a single-cell organism that can undergo a simple developmental program, making it an excellent model to study the molecular mechanisms of cell motility, signal transduction, and cell-type differentiation. A variety of human genes that are absent or show limited conservation in other invertebrate models have been identified in this organism. This includes ADP-ribosyltransferases, also known as poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs), a family of proteins that catalyze the addition of single or poly-ADP-ribose moieties onto target proteins. The genetic tractability of Dictyostelium and its relatively simple genome structure makes it possible to disrupt PARP gene combinations, in addition to specific ADP-ribosylation sites at endogenous loci. Together, this makes Dictyostelium an attractive model to assess how ADP-ribosylation regulates a variety of cellular processes including DNA repair, transcription, and cell-type specification. Here we describe a range of techniques to study ADP-ribosylation in Dictyostelium, including analysis of ADP-ribosylation events in vitro and in vivo, in addition to approaches to assess the functional roles of this modification in vivo.

Posttranscriptional regulation of RNA is an important component of gene expression by controlling the total amount of mRNA available for translation into protein. It involves multiple pathways including nuclear processing of mRNA and its precursors, RNA silencing, and regulation of RNA decay. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs), enzymes that modify target proteins with ADP-ribose, play important roles in several RNA-regulatory pathways. RNA-binding PARPs target specific transcripts for regulation, and multiple PARPs ADP-ribosylate RNA-regulatory proteins to alter their localization, activity, or RNA binding. Additionally, RNA-binding proteins can bind directly to poly(ADP-ribose) with various effects on their function. Here we describe methods to identify and confirm specific transcripts that are regulated by PARPs.

Macrodomains are conserved protein folds associated with ADP-ribose binding and turnover. ADP-ribosylation is a posttranslational modification catalyzed primarily by ARTD (aka PARP) enzymes in cells. ARTDs transfer either single or multiple ADP-ribose units to substrates, resulting in mono- or poly-ADP-ribosylation. TARG1/C6orf130 is a macrodomain protein that hydrolyzes mono-ADP-ribosylation and interacts with poly-ADP-ribose chains. Interactome analyses revealed that TARG1 binds strongly to ribosomes and proteins associated with rRNA processing and ribosomal assembly factors. TARG1 localized to transcriptionally active nucleoli, which occurred independently of ADP-ribose binding. TARG1 shuttled continuously between nucleoli and nucleoplasm. In response to DNA damage, which activates ARTD1/2 (PARP1/2) and promotes synthesis of poly-ADP-ribose chains, TARG1 re-localized to the nucleoplasm. This was dependent on the ability of TARG1 to bind to poly-ADP-ribose. These findings are consistent with the observed ability of TARG1 to competitively interact with RNA and PAR chains. We propose a nucleolar role of TARG1 in ribosome assembly or quality control that is stalled when TARG1 is re-located to sites of DNA damage.

PARP1 and PARP2 are implicated in the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) after detection of DNA damage. The specificity of PARP1 and PARP2 interaction with long DNA fragments containing single- and/or double-strand breaks (SSBs and DSBs) have been studied using atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging in combination with biochemical approaches. Our data show that PARP1 localizes mainly on DNA breaks and exhibits a slight preference for nicks over DSBs, although the protein has a moderately high affinity for undamaged DNA. In contrast to PARP1, PARP2 is mainly detected at a single DNA nick site, exhibiting a low level of binding to undamaged DNA and DSBs. The enhancement of binding affinity of PARP2 for DNA containing a single nick was also observed using fluorescence titration. AFM studies reveal that activation of both PARPs leads to the synthesis of highly branched PAR whose size depends strongly on the presence of SSBs and DSBs for PARP1 and of SSBs for PARP2. The initial affinity between the PARP1, PARP2 and the DNA damaged site appears to influence both the size of the PAR synthesized and the time of residence of PARylated PARP1 and PARP2 on DNA damages.

Breast cancer susceptibility gene 2 (BRCA2) plays a key role in DNA damage repair for maintaining genomic stability. Previous studies have shown that BRCA2 contains three tandem oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide binding folds (OB-folds) that are involved in DNA binding during DNA double-strand break repair. However, the molecular mechanism of BRCA2 in DNA damage repair remains elusive. Unexpectedly, we found that the OB-folds of BRCA2 recognize poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) and mediate the fast recruitment of BRCA2 to DNA lesions, which is suppressed by PARP inhibitor treatment. Cancer-associated mutations in the OB-folds of BRCA2 disrupt the interaction with PAR and abolish the fast relocation of BRCA2 to DNA lesions. The quickly recruited BRCA2 is important for the early recruitment of exonuclease 1(EXO1) and is involved in DNA end resection, the first step of homologous recombination (HR). Thus, these findings uncover a molecular mechanism by which BRCA2 participates in DNA damage repair.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is an ADP-ribosylating enzyme participating in diverse cellular functions. The roles of PARP-1 in the immune system, however, have not been well understood. Here we find that PARP-1 interacts with FOXP3 and induces its poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. By using PARP-1 inhibitors, we show that reduced poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of FOXP3 results in not only FOXP3 stabilization and increased FOXP3 downstream genes but also enhanced suppressive function of regulatory T cells. Our results suggest that PARP-1 negatively regulates the suppressive function of Treg cells at the posttranslational level via FOXP3 poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. This finding has implications for developing PARP-1 inhibitors as potential agents for the prevention and treatment of autoimmune diseases.
