A poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase from guinea pig liver cytoplasm has been purified approximately 45,000-fold to apparent homogeneity. The cytoplasmic poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase designated form II differed in several respects from the nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase I (Mr = 75,500) previously purified from the same tissue (Tanuma et al., 1986a). The purified glycohydrolase II consists of a single polypeptide with Mr of 59,500 estimated by a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel. A native Mr of 57,000 was determined by gel permeation. Peptide analysis of partial proteolytic degradation of glycohydrolases II and I with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease revealed that the two enzymes were structurally different. Amino acid analysis showed that glycohydrolase II had a relatively low proportion of basic amino acid residues as compared with glycohydrolase I. Glycohydrolase II and I were acidic proteins with isoelectric points of 6.2 and 6.6, respectively. The optimum pH for glycohydrolases II and I were around 7.4 and 7.0, respectively. The Km value for (ADP-ribose)n (average chain length n = 15) and the Vmax for glycohydrolase II were 4.8 microM and 18 mumol of ADP-ribose released from (ADP-ribose)n.min-1.(mg of protein)-1, respectively. The Km was about 2.5 times higher, and Vmax 2 times lower, than those observed with glycohydrolase I. Unlike glycohydrolase I, glycohydrolase II was inhibited by monovalent salts. ADP-ribose and cAMP inhibited glycohydrolase II more strongly than glycohydrolase I. These results suggest that eukaryotic cells contain two distinct forms of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase exhibiting differences in properties and subcellular localization.

Poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, extensively purified to homogeneity from nuclei of human placenta, is composed of a single polypeptide with a molecular mass of 71,000 daltons on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel. Judging from its physico-chemical and catalytic properties, the enzyme is similar to the nuclear glycohydrolase (glycohydrolase I), but not to the cytoplasmic glycohydrolase (glycohydrolase II) that has been purified from guinea pig liver (Tanuma, S., Kawashima, K., and Endo, H. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 965-969; Maruta, H., Inageda, K., Aoki, T., Nishina, H., and Tanuma, S. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 5907-5912). The rates of hydrolysis of (ADP-ribose)n bound to various proteins by the purified nuclear glycohydrolase were higher than those of the corresponding free polymers. Kinetic analyses revealed that the enzyme had more activity toward poly(ADP-ribose) bound to histone H1 or to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase than toward oligo(ADP-ribose) bound to cytoplasmic proteins from mitochondria or mRNA ribonucleoprotein although the Km and Vmax values were dependent on the chain length (n). In contrast, cytoplasmic glycohydrolase purified from human erythrocytes was more active toward oligo(ADP-ribose) (n = 2.6 or 4.2) bound to the cytoplasmic proteins than to poly(ADP-ribose) (n = 14.6) bound to histone H1, and their kinetic parameters of glycohydrolase II were rather dependent on the acceptor molecules for (ADP-ribose)n. These results suggest that poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase I may play an important role in regulation of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation levels on chromosomal proteins in nuclei.

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.
