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

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

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

Poly(adenosine 5'-diphosphoribose) synthetase (PARS) is a nuclear enzyme which, when activated by DNA strand breaks, adds up to 100 adenosine 5'-diphosphoribose (ADP-ribose) units to nuclear proteins such as histones and PARS itself. This activation can lead to cell death through
