The influence of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) on the replication of DNA containing the SV40 origin of replication has been examined. Extensive replication of SV40 DNA can be carried out in the presence of T antigen, topoisomerase I, the multimeric human single strand DNA-binding protein (HSSB), and DNA polymerase alpha-DNA primase (pol alpha-primase) complex (the monopolymerase system). In the monopolymerase system, both small products (Okazaki fragments), arising from lagging strand synthesis, and long products, arising from leading strand synthesis, are formed. The synthesis of long products requires the presence of relatively high levels of pol alpha-primase complex. In the presence of PARP, the synthesis of long products was blocked and only small Okazaki fragments accumulated, arising from the replication of the lagging strand template. The inhibition of leading strand synthesis by PARP can be effectively reversed by supplementing the monopolymerase system with the multimeric activator 1 protein (A1), the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and PCNA-dependent DNA polymerase delta (the dipolymerase system). The inhibition of leading strand synthesis in the monopolymerase system was caused by the binding of PARP to the ends of DNA chains, which blocked their further extension by pol alpha. The selective accumulation of Okazaki fragments was shown to be due to the coupled synthesis of primers by DNA primase and their immediate extension by pol alpha complexed to primase. PARP had little effect on this coupled reaction, but did inhibit the subsequent elongation of products, presumably after pol alpha dissociated from the 3'-end of the DNA fragments. PARP inhibited several other enzymatic reactions which required free ends of DNA chains. PARP inhibited exonuclease III, DNA ligase, the 5' to 3' exonuclease, and the elongation of primed DNA templates by pol alpha. In contrast, PARP only partly competed with the elongation of primed DNA templates by the pol delta elongation system which required SSB, A1, and PCNA. These results suggest that the binding of PARP at the ends of nascent DNA chains can be displaced by the binding of A1 and PCNA to primer ends. HSSB can be poly(ADP-ribosylated) in vivo as well as in vitro. However, the selective effect of PARP in blocking leading strand synthesis in the monopolymerase system was shown to depend primarily on its DNA binding property rather than on its ability to synthesize poly(ADP-ribose).

3-Aminobenzamide (3AB) has been used widely to inhibit the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (EC 2.4.2.30) and study the involvement of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis in DNA repair and other cellular functions. 3AB (3 mM) potentiates the cytotoxicity of 6-mercaptopurine (MP) and azathioprine in CHO-K1 cells with dose enhancement factors at 10% survival of 30-fold. In synchronized cells, 3AB is required during G1 and early S phase to obtain potentiation of MP cytotoxicity. There is a small but significant depletion of cellular NAD in MP-treated cells. As demonstrated by flow cytometric analysis, 20-40 microM MP causes an accumulation of cells in early S phase of the cell cycle. 3AB (3 mM) has no effect on cell cycle distribution; however, in the presence of MP, a similar accumulation is seen by 2-5 microM MP. 3AB and MP per se have no effect on phosphoribosylpyrophosphate levels, but coincubation causes a 30-fold increase in phosphoribosylpyrophosphate levels, reaching a maximum by 1.5 microM MP and declining to basal levels by 10 microM MP. There was a good correlation between the 3AB dose-dependent increase in cell killing and rise in phosphoribosylpyrophosphate levels.

Stimulating bone marrow derived macrophages with LPS results in the induction of NO-synthase as measured by NO2- formation. Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase, namely nicotinamide, 3-aminobenzamide and 3-methoxybenzamide, prevented NO2- formation in a dose dependent manner. Inhibition was most effective if the inhibitors were added at the same time as LPS. When added 10 h after exposure to LPS, a time at which expression of the enzyme had reached its maximum, no inhibition was observed. The inhibitors also blocked early events in activation such as protein and RNA-synthesis as well as DNA-synthesis. Thus prevention of NO2- formation may be related to inhibition of these events. Activation of macrophages by LPS was not accompanied by an increase but rather by a small decrease in ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Whether this decrease plays a physiological role in activation needs further exploration.

Bovine brain microtubule protein, containing both tubulin and microtubule-associated proteins, undergoes ADP-ribosylation in the presence of [14C]NAD+ and a turkey erythrocyte mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase in vitro. The modification reaction could be demonstrated in crude brain tissue extracts where selective ADP-ribosylation of both the alpha and beta chains of tubulin and of the high molecular weight microtubule-associated protein MAP-2 occurred. In experiments with purified microtubule protein, tubulin dimer, the high molecular weight microtubule-associated protein MAP-2, and another high molecular weight mirotubule-associated protein which may be a MAP-1 species were heavily labeled. Tubulin and MAP-2 incorporated [14C]ADP-ribose to an average extent of approximately 2.4 and 30 mol of ADP-ribose/mol of protein, respectively. Assembly of microtubule protein into microtubules in vitro was inhibited by ADP-ribosylation, and incubation of assembled steady-state microtubules with ADP-ribosyltransferase and NAD+ resulted in rapid depolymerization of the microtubules. Thus, the eukaryotic enzyme can ADP-ribosylate tubulin and microtubule-associated proteins to much greater extents than previously observed with cholera and pertussis toxins, and the modification can significantly modulate microtubule assembly and disassembly.

We reported the purification and characterization of an arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase and acceptor protein p33 in granules of chicken peripheral polymorphonuclear leukocytes (heterophils) [Mishima, K., Terashima, M., Obara, S., Yamada, K., Imai, K. & Shimoyama, M. (1991) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 110, 388-394]. In the present study, we obtained evidence that chicken non-muscle beta/gamma-actin, skeletal muscle alpha-actin and smooth-muscle gamma-actin were ADP ribosylated by the heterophil ADP-ribosyltransferase. The stoichiometry of ADP-ribose incorporation into these actins was 1.2 mol, 1.0 mol and 2.0 mol ADP-ribose/mol of beta/gamma-actin, alpha-actin and gamma-actin, respectively. The optimal pH for the ADP ribosylation was at pH 8.5, with the respective actin. Km values for NAD were calculated to be 30 microM with beta/gamma-actin, 35 microM with alpha-actin and 20 microM with gamma-actin. The Km values for the actin isoforms were 15 microM for beta/gamma-actin, 2.5 microM for alpha-actin and 10 microM for gamma-actin. ADP ribosylation of actin inhibited its capacity to polymerize, as determined by the increase in fluorescence intensity with N-(1-pyrenyl)iodoacetamide-labelled actin. Filamentous actin (F-actin) polymerized with the respective actin isoform was also ADP ribosylated, although the extent of the modification of F-actin was lower than that of globular actin (G-actin). In situ ADP ribosylation of beta/gamma-actin was evidenced with chicken peripheral heterophils permeabilized with saponin. Thus, the endogenous ADP ribosylation of actin in the heterophils may be involved in the cellular processes such as phagocytosis, secretion and migration.

In bovine aortic smooth muscle, GTP-binding activity was equally distributed in the membrane and cytosol fractions. The most abundant GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) in each fraction were purified to near homogeneity and characterized. The most abundant G protein in the membrane fraction had a Mr value of about 22,000 (m22K G) as estimated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryl-amide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). m22K G and the human platelet smg p21, a ras p21 like G protein having the same effector domain as ras p21s, were eluted at the same retention time on C4 reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Moreover, m22K G was specifically recognized by an anti-smg p21 polyclonal antibody. m22K G was phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase with a stoichiometry of one phosphate/molecule of protein. The most abundant G protein in the cytosol fraction had a Mr value of about 21,000 (c21K G) as estimated on SDS-PAGE. c21K G was ADP-ribosylated by botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase and about 0.4 mol of ADP-ribose was maximally incorporated into 1 mol of c21K G. c21K G and the bovine brain rhoA p21, another ras p21 like G protein, were eluted at the same retention time on C4 reversed-phase HPLC and migrated at the same position on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. These results indicate that the major G proteins in the membrane and cytosol fractions of bovine aortic smooth muscle are smg p21 and rhoA p21, respectively. Possible roles of these G proteins in vascular smooth muscle are discussed.

Pretreatment of rho protein purified from pig brain cytosol with EDTA (3 mM) for 10 min at 30 degrees C inhibited its ADP-ribosylation by Clostridium botulinum C3 ADP-ribosyltransferase by more than 90%. The EDTA effect was not caused by alteration of C3. GDP or GDP beta S present during the pretreatment period completely prevented the decrease in ADP-ribosylation with half-maximal and maximal effects at 3 and 300 microM, respectively. GTP or GTP gamma S were less efficacious in preventing the decrease in ADP-ribosylation, but were more potent (half-maximal and maximal effects at 0.1 and 3 microM, respectively). [32P]ADP-ribose incorporated in pig brain rho by C3 was de-ADP-ribosylated by the enzyme in the presence of nicotinamide and at low pH. Concomitantly, [32P]NAD was formed. The pH optima for ADP-ribosylation and de-ADP-ribosylation were pH 7.5 and 5.5, respectively. De-ADP-ribosylation was most efficient with nicotinamide, less effective with 3-acetylpyridine and not observed with 3-aminopyridine, 4-aminopyridine, 4-acetylpyridine and isonicotinic acid. As observed for the ADP-ribosylation, the de-ADP-ribosylation by C3 was maximal with the GDP-bound form of rho and blocked after EDTA treatment.

Two enzymatic activities of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase or transferase (ADPRT, EC 2.4.2.30), a DNA-associating abundant nuclear protein with multiple molecular activities, have been determined in HL60 cells prior to and after their exposure to 1 microM retinoic acid, which results in the induction of differentiation to mature granulocytes in 4-5 days. The cellular concentration of immunoreactive ADPRT protein molecules in differentiated granulocytes remained unchanged compared to that in HL60 cells prior to retinoic acid addition (3.17 +/- 1.05 ng/10(5) cells), as did the apparent activity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase of nuclei. On the other hand, the poly(ADP-ribose) synthesizing capacity of permeabilized cells or isolated nuclei decreased precipitously upon retinoic acid-induced differentiation, whereas the NAD glycohydrolase activity of nuclei significantly increased. The nuclear NAD glycohydrolase activity was identified as an ADPRT-catalyzed enzymatic activity by its unreactivity toward ethenoadenine NAD as a substrate added to nuclei or to purified ADPRT. During the decrease in in vitro poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity of nuclei following retinoic acid treatment, the quantity of endogenously poly(ADP-ribosylated) ADPRT significantly increased, as determined by chromatographic isolation of this modified protein by the boronate affinity technique, followed by gel electrophoresis and immunotransblot. When homogenous isolated ADPRT was first ADP-ribosylated in vitro, it lost its capacity to catalyze further polymer synthesis, whereas the NAD glycohydrolase function of the automodified enzyme was greatly augmented. Since results of in vivo and in vitro experiments coincide, it appears that in retinoic acid-induced differentiated cells (granulocytes) the autopoly(ADP-ribosylated) ADPRT performs a predominantly, if not exclusively, NAD glycohydrolase function.

When the homogenate prepared from immature rat testes was incubated with [32P]NAD, several proteins (90, 39 and 20 kDa) were ADP-ribosylated in the absence of bacterial toxins. This observation suggested the existence of an endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase and substrates. The data that the digested product by phosphodiesterase of ADP-ribosylated 20 kDa protein was 5'-AMP suggested that 20 kDa protein was mono(ADP-ribosyl)ated. In addition, the mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of 20 kDa protein was enhanced by guanine nucleotides such as GTP, GDP and GTP[gamma S], and decreased by the concentrations of 10 mM Mg2+. In contrast, the incorporation of ADP-ribose moiety from NAD to both 90 and 39 kDa proteins was not changed by guanine nucleotides. On the other hand, mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of 20 kDa protein was not observed in the homogenate prepared from other tissues of the same rats. Furthermore, we found that mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of 20 kDa protein was decreased with the maturation of the rats and that an endogenous mono(ADP-ribosyl)transferase and 20 kDa protein were located in the nuclei.

We have identified a guanidine group specific ADP-ribosyltransferase activity, capable of transferring an ADP-ribose group from NAD to a low molecular weight guanidine compound [p-(nitrobenzylidine)amino]guanidine and proteins such as histone and poly-L-arginine, in a variety of murine cell lines. The enzyme activity appears to be associated with an integral membrane protein of apparent molecular weight 30-33 kDa. Incubation of the viable cells in isotonic phosphate buffered saline with [32P]NAD results in the incorporation of label into cellular proteins. Dimethyl sulfoxide treatment of the cells downregulates the transferase activity as well as the ADP-ribosylation of cell proteins with extracellular NAD.
