Abstract: | The degree of complexing between DNA and chromosomal proteins and the ability of poly adenosine diphosphate ribosylation (ADP-ribosylation) of nuclear proteins to release this template restriction and expose DNA primer site changes during the HeLa cell cycle. Primer site exposure by NAD and poly ADP(ribose) polymerase was assessed with intact nuclei by single deoxynucleotide incorporation into DNA in the presence of saturating bacterial DNA polymerase. The most marked in vitro enhancement of primer site exposure by ADP-ribosylation occurred in early G1 phase, where cellular template restriction was the greatest. Cytoplasmic DNA polymerase also had high activity in early G1 phase of the cell cycle. Streptozotocin reduces NAD pools in HeLa cells; a concomitant stimulation of nuclear poly ADP(ribose) polymerase activity is noted. |
