A specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay for ADP-ribose has been developed on the basis of the selective conversion of ADP-ribose to 5'-AMP by alkaline treatment. Antibodies highly specific against 5'-AMP allowed quantification of ADP-ribose converted to 5'-AMP in the range of 1-40 pmol, and in the presence of large quantities of nucleic acids or 3'-AMP. Poly(ADP-ribose) could also be determined when degraded to ADP-ribose by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. Determination of the chain length of purified polymer was possible by a parallel determination of ADP-ribose residues after glycohydrolase treatment and of 5'-AMP from the non-reducing end obtained by phosphodiesterase catalyzed hydrolysis. The high specificities of the alkaline conversion of ADP-ribose to 5'-AMP and of the radioimmunoassay for 5'-AMP allowed quantification of protein-bound ADP-ribose residues in crude tissue extracts as verified by comparison with chromatographically purified samples.
