The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS) is activated by DNA strand breakage, caused, for example by nitric oxide (NO), peroxynitrite, or oxygen-derived free radicals. Activation of PARS can cause intracellular energy depletion and cell death in vitro and may play

The DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a heterotrimeric enzyme that binds to double-stranded DNA and is required for the rejoining of double-stranded DNA breaks in mammalian cells. It has been proposed that DNA-PK functions in this DNA repair pathway by

1 Poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS) is a nuclear enzyme activated by strand breaks in DNA, which are caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here we investigate the effects of the PARS inhibitors 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB), nicotinamide and 1,5-dihydroxyisoquinoline (ISO) on the
Cells with non-functional poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1) show increased levels of sister chromatid exchange, suggesting a hyper recombination phenotype in these cells. To further investigate the involvement of PARP-1 in homologous recombination (HR) we investigated how PARP-1 affects nuclear HR sites

Activation of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase after oxidative damage is implicated in different responses of the cells, for example, cell recovery after sublethal damage or cell death after lethal damage. However, the extent and mechanism of involvement of the enzyme in
