A poly(ADP-ribose)-H1 histone complex has been isolated from HeLa cell nuclei incubated with NAD. The rate of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase catalyzed hydrolysis of the polymer in the complex is only 1/9 that of free poly(ADP-ribose), indicating that the polymer is in a protected environment within the complex. Comparison of the rate of hydrolysis of free poly(ADP-ribose) in the presence or absence of H1 to that in the complex synthesized de novo indicates a specific mode of packaging of the complex. This is further indicated by the fact that alkaline dissociation of the complex followed by neutralization markedly exposes the associated poly(ADP-ribose) to the glycohydrolase. The complex also partially unfolds when it binds to DNA as evidenced by a 2-fold increase in the rate of glycolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose). This effect of DNA is not due to a stimulation of the glycohydrolase per se since hydrolysis of free polymer by the enzyme is strongly inhibited by DNA, especially single-stranded DNA. Inhibition of glycohydrolase by DNA results from the binding of the enzyme to DNA and conditions which decrease this binding (increased ionic strength or addition of histone H1 which competes for DNA binding) relieve the DNA inhibition.

Infected-cell protein 4 (ICP4), the major regulatory protein in herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2, was previously reported to accept 32P from [32P]NAD in isolated nuclei. This modification was attributed to poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (C. M. Preston and E. L. Notarianni, Virology 131:492-501, 1983). We determined that an antibody specific for poly(ADP-ribose) reacts with ICP4 extracted from infected cells, electrophoretically separated in denaturing gels, and electrically transferred to nitrocellulose. Our results indicate that all forms of ICP4 observed in one-dimensional gel electrophoresis are poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated. Poly(ADP-ribose) on ICP4 extracted from infected cells was resistant to cleavage by purified poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase unless ICP4 was in a denatured state. Poly(ADP-ribose) added to ICP4 in isolated nuclei was sensitive to this enzyme. This result indicates that the two processes are distinct and may involve different sites on the ICP4 molecule.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a eukaryotic posttranslational modification of proteins that is strongly induced by the presence of DNA strand breaks and plays a role in DNA repair and the recovery of cells from DNA damage. We compared poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP; EC 2.4.2.30) activities in Percoll gradient-purified, permeabilized mononuclear leukocytes from mammalian species of different maximal life span. Saturating concentrations of a double-stranded octameric oligonucleotide were applied to provide a direct and maximal stimulation of PARP. Our results on 132 individuals from 13 different species yield a strong positive correlation between PARP activity and life span (r = 0.84; P << 0.001), with human cells displaying approximately 5 times the activity of rat cells. Intraspecies comparisons with both rat and human cells from donors of all age groups revealed some decline of PARP activity with advancing age, but it was only weakly correlated. No significant polymer degradation was detectable under our assay conditions, ruling out any interference by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity. By Western blot analysis of mononuclear leukocytes from 11 species, using a crossreactive antiserum directed against the extremely well-conserved NAD-binding domain, no correlation between the amount of PARP protein and the species' life spans was found, suggesting a greater specific enzyme activity in longer-lived species. We propose that a higher poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation capacity in cells from long-lived species might contribute to the efficient maintenance of genome integrity and stability over their longer life span.

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.

A selection strategy to obtain cells deficient in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase was developed based on the fact that treatment with high levels of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine results in sufficient activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase to cause NAD and ATP depletion leading to cessation of all energy-dependent processes and rapid cell death. In contrast, cells with low levels of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase should not consume their NAD and might therefore be more likely to survive the DNA damage. Using this approach, we have cloned a number of cell lines containing 37-82% enzyme activity. The apparent decrease in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity is not due to increases in NAD glycohydrolase, poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, or phosphodiesterase activities. Further characterization of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-deficient cells indicates that they have prolonged generation times and increased rates of spontaneous sister chromatid exchanges.

The molecular mechanism of activation of Ca2+/Mg2+-dependent endonuclease in thymocytes of irradiated rats was studied. Thymocyte nuclei of control and irradiated rats were pre-incubated with NAD under conditions favourable for poly ADP-ribosylation. Pre-incubation results in a decrease in the rate of autolytic DNA digestion by Ca2+/Mg2+-dependent endonuclease of 6-7- and 2-3-fold for control and irradiated animals, respectively. The activity of Ca2+/Mg2+-nuclease extracted from the nuclei pre-incubated with NAD is also considerably decreased. The presence of nicotinamide and thymidine in the preincubation medium prevents the suppression of Ca2+/Mg2+-nuclease activity. In the experiments performed with isolated nuclei and permeabilized thymocytes the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) does not significantly change within 1 h after irradiation at a dose of 10 Gy, whereas 2 and 3 h after the exposure it decreases by 35-40 and 45-55 per cent, respectively. The activity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase in this period is similar to that in the controls. The average size of the de novo synthesized chains of poly(ADP-ribose) increases from 11 to 17 ADP-ribose units by the second hour after irradiation. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in the postirradiation period preceded the internucleosomal fragmentation of chromatin. The results suggest that activation of Ca2+/Mg2+-nuclease in irradiated thymocytes is accounted for by the disturbance of its poly ADP-ribosylation.

We have developed a rapid, highly reproducible assay to determine poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity which measures directly the appearance of the reaction product. We also analysed the majority of different techniques which are used to determine poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity and found that the apparent activity can vary extensively depending on the method used. Thin-layer chromatography using PEI-F-cellulose was the only method which evaluated directly the specific release of ADP-ribose; by comparison with this method, the other procedures gave an over- or under-estimation of 2- to 10-fold of the enzymatic activity. A rapid method of affinity chromatography has also been developed to synthesize and purify in high yield poly(ADP-ribose) (35% conversion of 1 mM NAD to poly(ADP-ribose)).

The effects of hyperthermia on adenine nucleotide metabolism including NAD and poly(ADP-ribose) have been studied in confluent cultures of C3H10T1/2 cells. Cells replated immediately following hyperthermic treatment showed only 9% survival relative to controls while after a 24-h recovery period at 37 degrees C survival was 87% of control. Hyperthermic treatment caused no detectable effect on total cellular levels of either NAD or ATP but produced a prolonged increase in cellular content of poly(ADP-ribose). Studies of the mechanism of this effect show that a major alteration of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism caused by hyperthermia involves a decrease in the rate of turnover of polymers of ADP-ribose. Normal polymer turnover rates were restored during recovery at 37 degrees C even in the presence of cyclohexamide. The results argue that poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity is reversibly altered by hyperthermia. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis following hyperthermia delays recovery of normal rates of protein synthesis and recovery of the ability of the cells to plate and form colonies.

Poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase was identified as the main acceptor of this polymer produced in isolated nuclei of rat liver. When the nuclei were incubated with [32P]NAD at a limited concentration (2.4 microM) and for a brief period (10 s), a protein with Mr = 110,000 was predominantly poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated, as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The modification of this protein increased upon longer incubations or at higher NAD concentrations, and induced a marked increase in the apparent molecular weight. A comparison with poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (Mr = 110,000) of rat liver under various conditions suggested that the increase in the molecular weight of the acceptor resembled that of the synthetase undergoing multiple auto-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. This interpretation was further supported by the following observations: 1) [32P]poly(ADP-ribose) attached to the acceptor co-eluted with the synthetase activity from a hydroxyapatite column; 2) the [32P]poly(ADP-ribose).acceptor complex isolated on the column was converted to a very large complex by further incubation with NAD; and 3) a group of large poly(ADP-ribose).acceptor complexes were reduced to a single molecular species with Mr = 110,000 by extensive digestion with poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. These findings altogether suggested that poly(ADP-ribose) synthesized in isolated nuclei was principally bound to the synthetase itself.

Adenosine diphosphate (hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidinediol (ADP-HPD), an NH analog of ADP-ribose, was chemically synthesized and shown to be a potent and specific inhibitor of poly-(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. The synthetic starting material was the protected pyrrolidine, (2R,3R,4S)-1-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine-3,4-diol 3,4-O-isopropylidene acetal. This starting pyrrolidine was phosphorylated, coupled to adenosine 5'-monophosphate, and deprotected, yielding the title inhibitor ADP-HPD. ADP-HDP was shown to inhibit the activity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase by 50% (IC50) at 0.12 microM, a value 1000-times lower than the IC50 of the product, ADP-ribose. The NAD glycohydrolase from Bungarus fasciatus venom was less sensitive to inhibition by ADP-HPD, exhibiting an IC50 of 260 microM. ADP-HPD did not inhibit either poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase or NAD:arginine mono(ADP-ribosyl)-transferase A at inhibitor concentrations up to 1 mM. At low ADP-HPD concentration, inhibition was therefore shown to be highly specific for poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, the hydrolytic enzyme in the metabolism of ADP-ribose polymers.
