Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activities were both investigated in chicken erythroblasts transformed by Avian Erythroblastosis Virus. Respectively 21% and 58% of these activities were found to be present in the post-mitochondrial supernatant (PMS). Fractionation of the PMS on sucrose gradients and poly(A+) mRNA detection by hybridization to [3H] poly(U) show that cytoplasmic poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is exclusively localized in free mRNP. The glycohydrolase activity sedimented mostly in the 6 S region but 1/3 of the activity was in the free mRNP zone. Seven poly(ADP-ribose) protein acceptors were identified in the PMS in the Mr 21,000-120,000 range. The Mr 120,000 protein corresponds to automodified poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. A Mr 21,000 protein acceptor is abundant in PMS and a Mr 34,000 is exclusively associated with ribosomes and ribosomal subunits. The existence of both poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and glycohydrolase activities in free mRNP argues in favour of a role of poly(ADP-ribosylation) in mRNP metabolism. A possible involvement of this post translational modification in the mechanisms of repression-derepression of mRNA is discussed.

It has been demonstrated recently by Poirier et al. (Poirier, G. G., de Murcia, G., Jongstra-Bilen, J., Niedergang, C., and Mandel, P. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 79, 3423-3427) that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of pancreatic nucleosomes causes relaxation of the chromatin superstructure through H1 modification. The in vitro effect of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis and degradation on calf thymus chromatin was investigated by the time course incorporation of ADP-ribose, electron microscopy, analytical ultracentrifugation, and autoradiography of the protein acceptors. Purified calf thymus poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and partially purified bull testis poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase were used. Degradation of ADP-ribose units on hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated H1 by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase restores the native condensed chromatin superstructure. This reversible conformational change induced by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation on nucleosomal arrangement could be one of the mechanisms by which the accessibility of DNA polymerases and/or excision-repair enzymes is favored, the native structure being fully restorable.

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 recently shown that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase forms poly(ADP-ribose) by adding ADP-ribose residues to the polymerase-proximal end of an enzyme-bound nascent chain. In this light we have reexamined the mode of hydrolysis of enzyme-bound poly(ADP-ribose) by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. When the substrate has been labeled by a pulse-chase protocol, soluble glycohydrolase releases a significant amount of labeled oligomer which can only come from the enzyme-distal (2') end of the polymer. This constitutes additional evidence for the proximal growth of chains. Oligomer is infrequently released from the proximal (1") end of enzyme-bound chains. Rather, the bulk of the poly(ADP-ribose) is digested directly to ADP-ribose monomers. We conclude that poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase starts digestion with an endonucleolytic incision and then removes ADP-ribose residues processively in the 2'----1" direction. Therefore, in contrast to earlier models of polymer growth and hydrolysis, a single poly(ADP-ribose) chain may be extended at one end and simultaneously degraded at the other end. The balance between synthesis and degradation may control the quantity and distribution of polymer around the DNA break which occasions its synthesis.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is a nuclear enzyme that is highly conserved in eucaryotes. Its activity is totally dependent on the presence of DNA containing single or double stranded breaks. We have shown that this activation results in a decondensation of chromatin superstructure in vitro, which is caused mainly by hyper(ADP-ribosy)ation of histone H1. In core particles, the modification of histone H2B leads to a partial dissociation of DNA from core histones. The conformational change of native chromatin by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is reversible upon degradation of the histone H1-bound poly(ADP-ribose) by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. We propose that cuts produced in vivo on DNA during DNA repair activate poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, which then synthesizes poly(ADP-ribose) on histone H1, in particular, and contributes to the opening of the 25-nm chromatin fiber, resulting in the increased accessibility of DNA to excision repair enzymes. This mechanism is fast and reversible.

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 supranormal temperature on the activity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase were studied by assaying the enzyme in cell extracts derived from cells subjected to hyperthermia and comparing with extracts that were heated in vitro. The enzyme activity was reduced by both hyperthermic treatment of cells and by heating of cell extracts; however greater reductions were observed when intact cells were subjected to hyperthermia. The additional reduction observed when intact cells were heated was reversed when cells were allowed to recover at 37 degrees C following hyperthermia. We postulate that hyperthermia alters poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity by two mechanisms, an irreversible thermal denaturation of the enzyme and a reversible metabolic alteration. Changes in poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity can account in full for the observed alterations of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism that occur following hyperthermia.

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.

Hydrolysis of protein-bound 32P-labelled poly(ADP-ribose) by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase shows that there is differential accessibility of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated proteins in chromatin to poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. The rapid hydrolysis of hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated forms of histone H1 indicates the absence of an H1 dimer complex of histone molecules. When the pattern of hydrolysis of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated histones was analyzed it was found that poly(ADP-ribose) attached to histone H2B is more resistant than the polymer attached to histone H1 or H2A or protein A24. Polymer hydrolysis of the acceptors, which had been labelled at high substrate concentrations (greater than or equal to 10 microM), indicate that the only high molecular weight acceptor protein is poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and that little processing of the enzyme occurs. Finally, electron microscopic evidence shows that hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, which is dissociated from its DNA-enzyme complex, binds again to DNA after poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase action.
