Poly[adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose] polymerases (PARPs) are a family of enzymes that modulate diverse biological processes through covalent transfer of ADP-ribose from the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) onto substrate proteins. Here we report a robust NAD(+) analog-sensitive approach for PARPs, which allows PARP-specific ADP-ribosylation of substrates that is suitable for subsequent copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reactions. Using this approach, we mapped hundreds of sites of ADP-ribosylation for PARPs 1, 2, and 3 across the proteome, as well as thousands of PARP-1-mediated ADP-ribosylation sites across the genome. We found that PARP-1 ADP-ribosylates and inhibits negative elongation factor (NELF), a protein complex that regulates promoter-proximal pausing by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Depletion or inhibition of PARP-1 or mutation of the ADP-ribosylation sites on NELF-E promotes Pol II pausing, providing a clear functional link between PARP-1, ADP-ribosylation, and NELF. This analog-sensitive approach should be broadly applicable across the PARP family and has the potential to illuminate the ADP-ribosylated proteome and the molecular mechanisms used by individual PARPs to mediate their responses to cellular signals.

The negative elongation factor (NELF) is a four-subunit protein complex (NELF-E, NELF-A, NELF-B and NELF-C/D) that negatively regulates transcription elongation of RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Interestingly, upregulation of NELF-E subunit promotes hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and pancreatic cancer. In addition, we have previously shown that NELF complex fosters double-strand break (DSB)-induced transcription silencing and promotes homology-directed repair (HDR). However, the mechanisms underlying NELF-E regulation of HDR of DSBs remain unknown. Here, we show that NELF-E interacts with BRCA1 and promotes its recruitment to laser-microirradiated sites and facilitates ionizing radiation-induced foci (IRIF) of BRCA1 in HCC cells (Hep3B). The reduction in BRCA1 IRIF is accompanied by decreased RAD51 IRIF. A corollary to this, NELF-E-deficient Hep3B cells exhibit defective HDR of chromosomal DSBs induced by CRISPR-Cas9 system. Consequently, the disruption of NELF complex integrity, by NELF-E downregulation, sensitizes Hep3B cells to PARP inhibition. Altogether, our results suggest that NELF promotes HDR by facilitating BRCA1 and RAD51 IRIF formation and identify NELF complex as a novel synthetic lethal partner of PARP1.
