Poly(etheno ADP-ribose) blocks poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity

Poly(ADP-ribose) is a biopolymer synthesized by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases. Recent findings suggest the possibility for modulation of cellular functions including cell death and mitosis by poly(ADP-ribose). Derivatization of poly(ADP-ribose) may be useful for investigating the effects of poly(ADP-ribose) on various cellular processes. We prepared poly(etheno ADP-ribose) (poly(epsilonADP-ribose)) by converting the adenine moiety of poly(ADP-ribose) to 1-N(6)-etheno adenine residues. Poly(epsilonADP-ribose) is shown to be highly resistant to digestion by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (Parg). On the other hand, poly(epsilonADP-ribose) could be readily digested by phosphodiesterase. Furthermore, poly(epsilonADP-ribose) inhibited Parg activity to hydrolyse ribose-ribose bonds of poly(ADP-ribose). This study suggests the possibility that poly(epsilonADP-ribose) might be a useful tool for studying the poly(ADP-ribose) dynamics and function of Parg. This study also implies that modification of the adenine moiety of poly(ADP-ribose) abrogates the susceptibility to digestion by Parg.     

Poly(ADP-ribose): PARadigms and PARadoxes

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) is a posttranslational protein modification (PTM) catalyzed by members of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzyme family. PARPs use NAD⁺ as substrate and upon cleaving off nicotinamide they transfer the ADP-ribosyl moiety covalently to suitable acceptor proteins and elongate the chain by adding further ADP-ribose units to create a branched polymer, termed poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), which is rapidly degraded by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) and ADP-ribosylhydrolase 3 (ARH3). In recent years several key discoveries changed the way we look at the biological roles and mode of operation of PARylation. These paradigm shifts include but are not limited to (1) a single PARP enzyme expanding to a PARP family; (2) DNA-break dependent activation extended to several other DNA dependent and independent PARP-activation mechanisms; (3) one molecular mechanism (covalent PARylation of target proteins) underlying the biological effect of PARPs is now complemented by several other mechanisms such as protein–protein interactions, PAR signaling, modulation of NAD⁺ pools and (4) one principal biological role in DNA damage sensing expanded to numerous, diverse biological functions identifying PARP-1 as a real moonlighting protein. Here we review the most important paradigm shifts in PARylation research and also highlight some of the many controversial issues (or paradoxes) of the field such as (1) the mostly synergistic and not antagonistic biological effects of PARP-1 and PARG; (2) mitochondrial PARylation and PAR decomposition, (3) the cross-talk between PARylation and signaling pathways (protein kinases, phosphatases, calcium) and the (4) divergent roles of PARP/PARylation in longevity and in age-related diseases.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) signaling in cell death

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) is a reversible protein modification carried out by the concerted actions of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes and poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) decomposing enzymes such as PAR glycohydrolase (PARG) and ADP-ribosyl hydrolase 3 (ARH3). Reversible PARylation is a pleiotropic regulator of various cellular functions but uncontrolled PARP activation may also lead to cell death. The cellular demise pathway mediated by PARylation in oxidatively stressed cells has been described almost thirty years ago. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms have only begun to emerge relatively recently. PARylation has been implicated in necroptosis, autophagic cell death but its role in extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis appears to be less predominant and depends largely on the cellular model used. Currently, three major pathways have been made responsible for PARP-mediated necroptotic cell death: (1) compromised cellular energetics mainly due to depletion of NAD, the substrate of PARPs; (2) PAR mediated translocation of apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) from mitochondria to nucleus (parthanatos) and (3) a mostly elusive crosstalk between PARylation and cell death/survival kinases and phosphatases. Here we review how these PARP-mediated necroptotic pathways are intertwined, how PARylation may contribute to extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis and discuss recent developments on the role of PARylation in autophagy and autophagic cell death.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis and cell division

A clone of HeLa cells has been selected in the presence of 5-methylnicotinamide. In the presence of 10 mM 5-methylnicotinamide the resistant cells grow at 70% of the rate of the same cell culture without 5-methylnicotinamide. 10 mM 5-methylnicotinamide completely inhibits the growth of normal HeLa cells. Both cell types in the absence of 5-methylnicotinamide have the same generation time. Poly (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) synthesis is less sensitive to 5-methylnicotinamide in nuclei isolated from the resistant cells than in nuclei from sensitive cells.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) catabolism in mammalian cells

Poly(ADP-ribose) catabolism is a complex situation involving many proteins and DNA. We have developed anin vitro turnover system where poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism is monitored in presence of different relative amounts of two principal enzymes poly(ADP-ribose) transferase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase along with other proteins and DNA. Our current results reviewed here show that the quality of polymer, i.e. chain length and complexity, as well as preference for the nuclear substrate varies depending upon the availability of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. These results are interpreted in the light of the recent data implicating poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism in DNA-repair. (Mol Cell Biochem 138: 45–52 1994)     

Poly(ADP-ribose) potentiates ZAP antiviral activity

Zinc-finger antiviral protein (ZAP), also known as poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 13 (PARP13), is an antiviral factor that selectively targets viral RNA for degradation. ZAP is active against both DNA and RNA viruses, including important human pathogens such as hepatitis B virus and type 1 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1). ZAP selectively binds CpG dinucleotides through its N-terminal RNA-binding domain, which consists of four zinc fingers. ZAP also contains a central region that consists of a fifth zinc finger and two WWE domains. Through structural and biochemical studies, we found that the fifth zinc finger and tandem WWEs of ZAP combine into a single integrated domain that binds to poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), a cellular polynucleotide. PAR binding is mediated by the second WWE module of ZAP and likely involves specific recognition of an adenosine diphosphate-containing unit of PAR. Mutation of the PAR binding site in ZAP abrogates the interaction in vitro and diminishes ZAP activity against a CpG-rich HIV-1 reporter virus and murine leukemia virus. In cells, PAR facilitates formation of non-membranous sub-cellular compartments such as DNA repair foci, spindle poles and cytosolic RNA stress granules. Our results suggest that ZAP-mediated viral mRNA degradation is facilitated by PAR, and provides a biophysical rationale for the reported association of ZAP with RNA stress granules.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) makes a date with death

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes catalyze the conversion of NAD(+) to polymers of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR). Although its role in the DNA-damage response has long been recognized, recent work indicates that PAR itself acts at the mitochondria to directly induce cell death through stimulation of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) release. This review discusses PAR synthesis and degradation, and the role of PAR misregulation in various disease states. Attention is given to opportunities for therapeutic intervention with small molecules that are involved in PAR signaling, with specific focus on poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) and AIF.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase forms loops with DNA

The interaction between highly purified poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase from calf thymus and different topological forms of pBR322 DNA has been studied by gel retardation electrophoresis and electron microscopy. We show that: (i) in the absence of nicks on DNA the enzyme has a marked affinity for supercoiled (form I) DNA, (ii) in the presence of single stranded breaks poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase preferentially binds to form II, (iii) in all cases enzyme molecules are frequently located at DNA intersections, (iv) a cooperative binding of the enzyme on DNA occurs.     

Preferential Perinuclear Localization of Poly(ADP-ribose) Glycohydrolase

The transient nature of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, a posttranslational modification of nuclear proteins, is achieved by the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) which hydrolyzes the poly(ADP-ribose) polymer into free ADP-ribose residues. To investigate the molecular size and localization of PARG, we developed a specific polyclonal antibody directed against the bovine PARG carboxy-terminal region. We found that PARG purified from bovine thymus was recognized as a 59-kDa protein, while Western blot analysis of total cell extracts revealed the presence of a unique 110-kDa protein. This 110-kDa PARG was mostly found in postnuclear extracts, whereas it was barely detectable in the nuclear fractions of COS7 cells. Further analysis by immunofluorescence revealed a cytoplasmic perinuclear distribution of PARG in COS7 cells overexpressing the bovine PARG cDNA. These results provide direct evidence that PARG is primarily a cytoplasmic enzyme and suggest that a very low amount of intranuclear PARG is required for poly(ADP-ribose) turnover.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases: managing genome stability

The importance of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism in the maintenance of genomic integrity following genotoxic stress has long been firmly established. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and its catabolic counterpart, poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) play major roles in the modulation of cell responses to genotoxic stress. Recent discoveries of a number of other enzymes with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity have established poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation as a general biological mechanism in higher eukaryotic cells that not only promotes cellular recovery from genotoxic stress and eliminates severely damaged cells from the organism, but also ensures accurate transmission of genetic information during cell division. Additionally, emerging data suggest the involvement of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation in the regulation of intracellular trafficking, memory formation and other cellular functions. In this brief review on PARP and PARG enzymes, emphasis is placed on PARP-1, the best understood member of the PARP family and on the relationship of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation to cancer and other diseases of aging.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) accessibility to poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity on poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated nucleosomal proteins

Hydrolysis of protein-bound 32P-labelled poly(ADP-ribose) by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase shows that there is differential accessibility of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated proteins in chromatin to poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. The rapid hydrolysis of hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated forms of histone H1 indicates the absence of an H1 dimer complex of histone molecules. When the pattern of hydrolysis of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated histones was analyzed it was found that poly(ADP-ribose) attached to histone H2B is more resistant than the polymer attached to histone H1 or H2A or protein A24. Polymer hydrolysis of the acceptors, which had been labelled at high substrate concentrations (greater than or equal to 10 microM), indicate that the only high molecular weight acceptor protein is poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and that little processing of the enzyme occurs. Finally, electron microscopic evidence shows that hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, which is dissociated from its DNA-enzyme complex, binds again to DNA after poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase action.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 accelerates single-strand break repair in concert with poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase

Single-strand breaks are the commonest lesions arising in cells, and defects in their repair are implicated in neurodegenerative disease. One of the earliest events during single-strand break repair (SSBR) is the rapid synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), followed by its rapid degradation by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). While the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) is important for rapid rates of chromosomal SSBR, the relative importance of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and PARP-2 and of the subsequent degradation of PAR by PARG is unclear. Here we have quantified SSBR rates in human A549 cells depleted of PARP-1, PARP-2, and PARG, both separately and in combination. We report that whereas PARP-1 is critical for rapid global rates of SSBR in human A549 cells, depletion of PARP-2 has only a minor impact, even in the presence of depleted levels of PARP-1. Moreover, we identify PARG as a novel and critical component of SSBR that accelerates this process in concert with PARP-1.     

Poly(ADP-ribose) has a branched structure in vivo

We have searched for the presence of branching in the chromosomal polymer poly(ADP-ribose) as it occurs in vivo. Treatment of the polymer with phosphodiesterase asnd phosphomonoesterase results in the conversion of internal residues to the nucleoside ribosyladenosine and the conversion of points of branching to diribosyladenosine. We have detected diribosyladenosine in digests of the polymer derived from carcinogen-treated SV40 virus-formed 3T3 cells and in normal rat liver, kidney, and spleen. The frequency of residues involved in branching varied from 0.8 to 1.6 mole % over a 50-fold range of total levels of poly(ADP-ribose). Thus, branching seems to be a general feature of poly(ADP-ribose) as it occurs in vivo.
