A novel enzyme that splits a bond between ADP-ribose and histone was discovered and partially purified from rat liver cytosol. The 105,000 X g supernatant of rat liver homogenate was precipitated by 45% saturated ammonium sulfate and then chromatographed on a DEAE-cellulose column. The enzyme activity was eluted in a single peak at about 0.2 M NaCl and clearly separated from poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase which came out at 0.13 M NaCl. In contrast to the latter enzyme, this new enzyme catalyzed the spliting of a linkage between ADP-ribose and a protein portion in mono ADP-ribosylated histone H2B but little, if any, of the glycosidic ribosyl(1"-2') ribose bonds within poly(ADP-ribose). Analysis of the reaction product by paper chromatography and Dowex 1 column chromatography indicated that the split product contained the ADP-ribose moiety but was not exactly identical with ADP-ribose. Available evidence suggested that it was either an altered ADP-ribose molecule produced by a structural rearrangement or ADP-ribose itself linked to an unidentified compound. The enzyme had a pH optimum of about 6.0 and was inhibited by 80-90% in the presence of 5 mM ADP-ribose.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase have been detected in chromatin extracts from the dinoflagellate Crypthecodinium cohnii. Poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase was detected by the liberation of ADP-ribose from poly(ADP-ribose). Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase was proved by (a) demonstration of phosphoribosyl-AMP in the phosphodiesterase digest of the reaction product, (b) demonstration of ADP-ribose oligomers by fractionation of the reaction product on DEAE-Sephadex. The (ADP-ribose)-protein transfer is dependent on DNA; it is inhibited by nicotinamide, thymidine, theophylline and benzamide. The protein-(ADP-ribose bond is susceptible to 0.1 M NaOH (70%) and 0.4 M NH2OH (33%). Dinoflagellates, nucleated protists, are unique in that their chromatin lacks histones and shows a conformation like bacterial chromatin [Loeblich, A. R., III (1976) J. Protozool. 23, 13--28]; poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, however, has been found only in eucaryotes. Thus our results suggest that histones were not relevant to the establishment of poly(ADP-ribose) during evolution.
