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.

A poly(ADP-ribose)-H1 histone complex has been isolated from HeLa cell nuclei incubated with NAD. The rate of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase catalyzed hydrolysis of the polymer in the complex is only 1/9 that of free poly(ADP-ribose), indicating that the polymer is in a protected environment within the complex. Comparison of the rate of hydrolysis of free poly(ADP-ribose) in the presence or absence of H1 to that in the complex synthesized de novo indicates a specific mode of packaging of the complex. This is further indicated by the fact that alkaline dissociation of the complex followed by neutralization markedly exposes the associated poly(ADP-ribose) to the glycohydrolase. The complex also partially unfolds when it binds to DNA as evidenced by a 2-fold increase in the rate of glycolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose). This effect of DNA is not due to a stimulation of the glycohydrolase per se since hydrolysis of free polymer by the enzyme is strongly inhibited by DNA, especially single-stranded DNA. Inhibition of glycohydrolase by DNA results from the binding of the enzyme to DNA and conditions which decrease this binding (increased ionic strength or addition of histone H1 which competes for DNA binding) relieve the DNA inhibition.

We have found that two nuclear enzymes, i.e. poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (EC 2.4.2.30) and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, may cooperate to function as a histone shuttle mechanism on DNA. The mechanism involves four distinct reaction intermediates that were analyzed in a reconstituted in vitro system. In the first step, the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is activated in the presence of histone-DNA complexes and converts itself into a protein carrying multiple ADP-ribose polymers. These polymers attract histones that dissociate from the DNA as a histone-polymer-polymerase complex. The DNA assumes the electrophoretic mobility of free DNA and becomes susceptible to nuclease digestion (second step). In the third step, poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase degrades ADP-ribose polymers and thereby eliminates the binding sites for histones. In the fourth step, histones reassociate with DNA, and the histone-DNA complexes exhibit the electrophoretic mobilities and nuclease susceptibilities of the original complexes prior to dissociation. Our results are compatible with the view that the poly(ADP-ribosylation) system acts as a catalyst of nucleosomal unfolding of chromatin in DNA excision repair.

In DNA excision repair of mammalian cells, the processing of ADP-ribose by the poly ADP-ribosylation system of chromatin is stimulated several thousand-fold. Most of this turnover is associated with the automodification reaction of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and the degradation of polymerase-bound polymers by the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. The automodification cycle catalyzes a temporary dissociation from and reassociation of histones with DNA. It is proposed that this mechanism, termed "histone shuttle", may guide specific proteins to sites of repair. In addition, histone shuttling driven by the poly ADP-ribosylation system seems to be involved in nucleosomal unfolding of chromatin in DNA excision repair.

Poly(ADP-ribose) is a naturally occurring nuclear macromolecule resembling nucleic acids. It is synthesized from NAD+ on histones and a few other nuclear proteins. Its function, although not completely understood, might be to alter chromatin structure and to regulate the activity of proteins involved in the metabolism of DNA strand breaks such as ligase II, and topoisomerase I. In addition, poly(ADP-ribose) modifies proteins involved in gene expression such as acetylated histones. HMG proteins, and T antigen. The enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase responsible for this modification has the unique property of requiring nicks or free ends on the DNA for its activity and of being automodified. The automodified enzyme, presumably found at the vicinity of DNA strand breaks at damaged chromatin sites, could remove histones from DNA and attract enzymes that have an affinity for poly(ADP-ribose) such as ligase II or poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, the polymer-degrading enzyme. Alterations in chromatin structure alter gene expression and seem to be involved in repair, replication, and recombination and in changing DNA superhelical density, intermediate steps in molecular carcinogenesis. Experiments with cells in culture and laboratory animals show that inhibition of poly(ADP-ribosylation) alters transformation and tumorigenicity brought about by a great number of carcinogenic agents. Cancer can be caused by the accumulation of unrepaired DNA strand breaks in the cell accelerating gene rearrangements, deletions, insertions and amplifications. Repair of DNA strand breaks shows an absolute dependence upon the rapid synthesis and degradation of poly(ADP-ribose). The polymer has a very short half life indeed. Data are reviewed on changes in chromatin structure and function caused by histone and nonhistone poly(ADP-ribosylation). The link of this modification to transformation, tumorigenesis, development, replication and gene expression is examined. A model is proposed to explain the effect of poly(ADP-ribosylation) on chromatin structure at the molecular level. Mono- and oligo(ADP-ribosylated) histones present in nuclei under physiological conditions are proposed to functions, like acetylated histones, in maintaining chromatin loops into transcriptionally active structures. On the other hand, poly(ADP-ribosylated) histones and poly(ADP-ribosylated) enzymes such as DNA and RNA polymerases, suggested to be modified from in vitro studies, might only appear in cells that have been heavily damaged by carcinogen. Their function might be to remove histones from DNA in order to facilitate repair and to shut down transcription and replication.

Histone ADP-ribosylation was studied using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis after cleavage of the nuclear DNA with nucleases. Modified histones carrying different numbers of ADP-ribose groups form a ladder of bands above each variant histone. Cellular lysates containing unfragmented DNA mainly synthesize mono(ADP-ribosylated) histones. Cleavage of the DNA with either DNase I or micrococcal nuclease to fragments of an average size of 10-20 kilobases (kb) dramatically induces the formation of poly(ADP-ribosylated) species of histones in nuclei. As the number of DNA strand breaks produced by either DNase I or micrococcal nuclease increases and a great number of DNA cuts is introduced (fragments of 0.4-0.2 kb), the size of the poly(ADP-ribose) chains on the histones decreases. Finally, in the presence of 10 mM cAMP as an inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, human lymphoid nuclei synthesize hyper(ADP-ribosylated) histone H2B with at least 40 ADP-ribose groups attached to it. Lateral ladders emanating at precise points of the linear ladder on hypermodified H2B can arise from branching of poly(ADP-ribose) or from multiple monomodifications of glutamic (or aspartic) acid residues. Branching or de novo monomodifications occur after a precise number of ADP-ribose groups have been added to a histone molecule. Poly(ADP-ribosylated) histones thus appear to be intermediates in nuclear processes involving DNA strand breaks.

Hydrolysis of protein-bound 32P-labelled poly(ADP-ribose) by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase shows that there is differential accessibility of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated proteins in chromatin to poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. The rapid hydrolysis of hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated forms of histone H1 indicates the absence of an H1 dimer complex of histone molecules. When the pattern of hydrolysis of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated histones was analyzed it was found that poly(ADP-ribose) attached to histone H2B is more resistant than the polymer attached to histone H1 or H2A or protein A24. Polymer hydrolysis of the acceptors, which had been labelled at high substrate concentrations (greater than or equal to 10 microM), indicate that the only high molecular weight acceptor protein is poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and that little processing of the enzyme occurs. Finally, electron microscopic evidence shows that hyper(ADP-ribosyl)ated poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, which is dissociated from its DNA-enzyme complex, binds again to DNA after poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase action.

Proflavine, ethacridine (2-ethoxy-6,9-acridine diamine), ellipticine, daunomycin and Tilorone R10,556 DA (2,7-bis(piperidinobutyryl)-9H-fluoren-9-one) inhibit poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity. The Ki values for proflavine and Tilorone R10,556 DA are 36 microM and 7.3 microM, respectively. The inhibition by intercalators is relieved by DNA but not by DNA-histone complexes. On the contrary, DNA-histone complexes increase the inhibition of some intercalators. Ethidium bromide is not inhibitory by itself. However, in the presence of DNA-histone complexes it strongly inhibits the enzyme activity. m-AMSA (4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulphon-m-anisidide) and chloroquine have no effect on the enzyme activity, even in the presence of DNA-histone complexes.

Poly(ADP-ribose) synthetic activity in isolated nucleoli from rapidly growing mouse ascites tumor cells and ADP-ribosylation of the nucleolar proteins in vitro were studied. The specific activity of the synthesis in the nucleoli was significantly higher than that in the chromatin. The optimum magnesium and NAD+ concentrations, and the effect of RNase treatment on the reaction in the nucleoli were also distinctly different from those in the chromatin. Hydrolysis of the reaction product of the nucleoli with snake venom phosphodiesterase and with calf thymus poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase yielded 5'-AMP and 2'-(5"-phosphoribosyl))5'-AMP, and ADP-ribose, respectively. The average chain length of the polymer formed in the nucleoli was found to be about 4 as a whole, but the distribution was heterogenous, from 1.2 to over 12. Analysis of ADP-ribosylated proteins in the nucleoli by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that several non-histone proteins with molecular weights of over 100,000 were highly ADP-ribosylated compared with other proteins including histones. This pattern was also different from that of the chromatin. These experimental results demonstrate that the nucleoli are independent from the chromatin as regards poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis in vitro.

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.
