Oenothein B, a macrocircular dimeric ellagitannin, was found to be a potent and specific inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. Oenothein B suppressed glucocorticoid-sensitive mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) transcription in 34I cells. This suppression was accompanied by inhibition of glucocorticoid-induced endogeneous de-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of high mobility group (HMG) 14 and 17 proteins. These results suggest that de-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of these proteins may be closely connected with the events initiating glucocorticoid-sensitive MMTV gene transcription.

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.

Poly(ADP-ribose) catabolism is a complex situation involving many proteins and DNA. We have developed an in vitro turnover system where poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism is monitored in presence of different relative amounts of two principal enzymes poly(ADP-ribose) transferase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase along with other proteins and DNA. Our current results reviewed here show that the quality of polymer, i.e. chain length and complexity, as well as preference for the nuclear substrate varies depending upon the availability of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. These results are interpreted in the light of the recent data implicating poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism in DNA-repair.

The enzymes poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase may cooperate to drive a histone shuttle mechanism in chromatin. The mechanism is triggered by binding of the N-terminal zinc-finger domain of the polymerase to DNA strand breaks, which activates the catalytic activities residing in the C-terminal domain. The polymerase converts into a protein carrying multiple ADP-ribose polymers which displace histones from DNA by specifically targeting the histone tails responsible for DNA condensation. As a result, the domains surrounding DNA strand breaks become accessible to other proteins. Poly(ADP-ribose)glycohydrolase attacks ADP-ribose polymers in a specific order and thereby releases histones for reassociation with DNA. Increasing evidence from different model systems suggests that histone shuttling participates in DNA repair in vivo as a catalyst for nucleosomal unfolding.

The turnover of the homopolymer of ADP-ribose, which is known to be involved in many DNA-related functions, is controlled by 2 principal enzymes. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (EC 2.4.2.30) synthesizes the polymer from NAD, and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) is the major enzyme responsible for its catabolism (Thomassin et al. (1992) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1137, 171-181). In vivo, poly(ADP-ribose) polymers constitute a heterogeneous population of branched polymers attaining sizes of 200-400 residues. They are rapidly degraded by PARG, displaying variable kinetic parameters as a function of polymer size. Several studies have suggested that PARG acts exoglycosidically on its substrate but others observed that it could act endo/exo-glycosidically. We analysed the mode of action of PARG under conditions most suitable for expression of all the activities of PARG, using HPLC purified long free polymer and very pure PARG. We conclusively show that on large free polymers, PARG exhibits endoglycosidic activity along with exoglycosidic activity. This endoglycosidic activity could have a significant role during cellular response to DNA damage.

Soluble extracts of human cells repair gamma-ray-induced single-strand breaks in DNA. Accompanying NAD-dependent automodification of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is required for effective DNA rejoining. The kinetics of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis by this polymerase, and subsequent polymer degradation by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, have been compared with the rate of DNA repair. The results agree with previous in vivo data. In response to addition of gamma-irradiated plasmid DNA, rapid and heavy automodification of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase occurred in NAD-containing human cell extracts. After 2 min at 30 degrees C, when very little DNA rejoining had yet occurred, synthesis of long polymers essentially ceased, although only a minor fraction of the NAD had been consumed. Poly(ADP-ribose) chains were then reduced to oligomer size by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. These short chains were present for longer times and were sufficient to permit DNA repair. Thus, most but not all poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis could be suppressed without marked inhibition of DNA repair, and prolonged occurrence of long poly(ADP-ribose) chains in consequence to glycohydrolase inhibition did not improve DNA repair. The temporary presence of short poly(ADP-ribose) chains on poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase avoids inhibition of excision-repair by that protein, but the initial very transient formation of long and branched chains of poly(ADP-ribose) in response to DNA damage apparently serves an entirely different purpose. Local poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis in the vicinity of a DNA strand interruption causes negative charge repulsion, and this may function to prevent accidental homologous recombination events within tandem repeat DNA sequences.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation metabolism, a post-translational modification, involves two nuclear enzymes. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) are responsible for the anabolism and catabolism of poly(ADP-ribose) polymer, respectively. PARG, despite being less abundant than PARP, is a crucial determinant of polymer metabolism which is known to be implicated in DNA repair and other cellular processes. Here, we describe modifications to improve the purification of PARG from calf thymus, in terms of both quantity and quality, which would allow biochemical and immunological studies. We also developed a zymogram to identify functional polypeptides exhibiting PARG activity. Purified and crude enzyme preparations from calf thymus were electrophoresed in two-dimensional gels. Samples were resolved on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis containing the polymer substrate in the form of automodified PARP after a nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis. After renaturation of PARG in the gel, four isoforms of activity were clearly detected in the purified enzyme preparation. Even in the crude extract of the tissue, we could observe the major isoform of PARG. This technique will permit a better understanding of poly(ADP-ribose) catabolism and better characterization of PARG isoforms.

Post-translational modification of nuclear proteins with poly(ADP-ribose) modules chromatin structure and may be required for DNA processing events such as replication, repair and transcription. The polymer-catabolizing enzyme, poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, is crucial for the regulation of polymer metabolism and the reversibility of the protein modification. Previous reports have shown that glycohydrolase digests poly(ADP-ribose) via an exoglycosidic mechanism progressing from the protein-distal end of the polymer. Using two independent approaches, we investigated the possibility that poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase also engages in endoglycosidic cleavage of polymers. First, partial glycohydrolase digestion of protein-bound poly(ADP-ribose) led to the production of protein-free oligomers of ADP-ribose. Second, partial glycohydrolase digestion of a fixed number of protein-free poly(ADP-ribose) polymers resulted in a transient increase in the absolute number of polymers while polymer size continuously decreased. Furthermore, endoglycosidic activity produced linear polymers from branched polymers although branch points themselves were not a preferential target of cleavage. From these data, we propose a mechanism whereby poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase degrades polymers in three distinct phases; (a) endoglycosidic cleavage, (b) endoglycosidic cleavage plus exoglycosidic, processive degradation, (c) exoglycosidic, distributive degradation.

In the past five years, poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has developed greatly with the help of molecular biology and the improvement of biochemical techniques. In this article, we describe the physico-chemical properties of the enzymes responsible for the synthesis and degradation of poly(ADP-ribose), respectively poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. We then discuss the possible roles of this polymer in DNA repair and replication as well as in cellular differentiation and transformation. Finally, we put forward various hypotheses in order to better define the function of this polymer found only in eucaryotes.

The inhibitory effects on poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase purified from human placenta of three classes of chemically defined tannins; gallotannins, ellagitannins and condensed tannins, were examined in vitro. Oligomeric ellagitannins were found to be most potent inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, their potencies increasing with increasing number of monomeric residues (dimer < trimer < tetramer). Monomeric ellagitannins and gallotannins were less inhibitory. Condensed tannins, which consist of an epicatechin gallate oligomer without a glucose core, were not appreciably inhibitory. A structure-activity study showed that higher-order conformations of the conjugates with glucose of hexahydroxydiphenoyl and valoneoyl groups, which are unique components of ellagitannins, cooperatively potentiated the inhibitory activity.
