A poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase was purified more than 5,000-fold to apparent homogeneity from pig testis nuclei with a yield of 16%. A protein band, whose molecular mass (Mr) was estimated to be 58,000, detected by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified preparation, was shown to have glycohydrolase activity upon assay by the renaturation method. A native Mr of 51,000 was determined by gel permeation. This polypeptide is a basic protein with a pI value of 8.8. The mode of hydrolysis of poly(ADP-ribose) [(ADP-ribose)n] by this enzyme is exoglycosidic, yielding ADP-ribose as the final product. The Km value for (ADP-ribose)n (average chain length, n = 15) is 5.4 microM and the Vmax of its hydrolysis is 34.5 micromol x min(-1) x mg protein(-1). The optimum pH for enzyme activity is 7.2. Low concentrations (50 approximately 150 mM) of monovalent salts stimulate the enzyme activity. The poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase present in pig testis nuclei has some properties different from either nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (type I) or cytoplasmic poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (type II), purified previously from several tissues including pig thymus, guinea pig liver, calf thymus, human erythrocytes, and placenta. These differences suggest the tissue specificity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase.

Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry were used to analyze the structural proteins of the occlusion-derived virus (ODV) of Helicoverpa armigera single nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearNPV), a group II NPV. Twenty-three structural proteins of HearNPV ODV were identified, 21 of which have been reported previously as structural proteins or ODV-associated proteins in other baculoviruses. These include polyhedrin, P78/83, P49, ODV-E18, ODV-EC27, ODV-E56, P74, LEF-3, HA66 (AC66), DNA polymerase, GP41, VP39, P33, ODV-E25, helicase, P6.9, ODV/BV-C42, VP80, ODV-EC43, ODV-E66, and PIF-1. Two proteins encoded by HearNPV ORF44 (ha44) and ORF100 (ha100) were discovered as ODV-associated proteins for the first time. ha44 encodes a protein of 378 aa with a predicted mass of 42.8 kDa. ha100 encodes a protein of 510 aa with a predicted mass of 58.1 kDa and is a homologue of the gene for poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (parg). Western blot analysis and immunoelectron microscopy confirmed that HA44 is associated with the nucleocapsid and HA100 is associated with both the nucleocapsid and the envelope of HearNPV ODV. HA44 is conserved in group II NPVs and granuloviruses but does not exist in group I NPVs, while HA100 is conserved only in group II NPVs.
