Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase 1 (PARP1), functioning as DNA nick-sensor, interacts with base excision repair (BER) DNA intermediates containing single-strand breaks. When bound to DNA breaks, PARP1 catalyzes synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) covalently attached to itself and some nuclear proteins. Autopoly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of PARP1 facilitates its dissociation from DNA breaks and is considered as a factor...
In this study, we examined the interaction of PARP1 and its apoptotic 24kDa-fragment with DNA duplexes mimicking different stages/pathways of base excision repair (BER) using a photocross-linking technique combined to in vitro functional assay. We found that endogenous PARP1 was photocross-linked to the gapped, nicked and flap containing DNA structures and its apoptotic 24kDa-fragment (p24), like...
Background: In the translation of the genetic code each aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS) must recognize its own (cognate) tRNA and attach the corresponding amino acid to the acceptor end of tRNA, discriminating all the others. The(αβ) 2 phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase (PheRS) is one of the most complex enzymes in the aaRS family and is characterized by anomalous charging properties. Structurally,...
