Poly(ADP-Ribose) Glycohydrolase and ADP-Ribosyl Group Turnover

  • Chapter
ADP-Ribose Transfer Reactions

Abstract

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation constitutes a novel type of posttranslational covalent modification of nuclear proteins. The synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) is catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (1). Recently, poly(ADP-ribose) groups on proteins were found to turn over rapidly in vivo (2, 3). The degradation of poly(ADP-ribose) is carried out by two different types of enzymes. ADP-ribosyl protein lyase cleaves the bond between mono(ADP-ribose) and protein (4). Another enzyme is poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, which is known to split the ribose-ribose glycosidic bond (5, 6). The glycohydrolase is the major enzyme responsible for polymer degradation in vivo (7). Therefore, the knowledge of its precise mode of action on poly(ADP-ribose) is important for elucidating not only the metabolism of poly(ADP-ribose) but also the biological functions of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. In the present study, we purified this glycohydrolase, and investigated its mode of action precisely.
