Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated diadenosine tetraphosphate was found to inhibit the in vitro replication of SV40 DNA. This inhibition was sensitive to preincubation of the polymer with either poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A):ADP phosphohydrolase, or an excess of free Ap4A. In contrast, the general catalytic activity of DNA polymerase was not inhibited by the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated Ap4A when activated salmon sperm DNA was used as a template. These data suggest that inhibition of SV40 DNA replication by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated Ap4A requires both the intact polymer and intact Ap4A moiety and is specific to events occurring during the initiation or elongation of a double-stranded template. Since both poly(ADP-ribose) and Ap4A accumulate in cultured mammalian cells following stresses which are accompanied by DNA strand breaks, these data are consistent with a model in which poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated Ap4A inhibits DNA replication following DNA damage.
