General description

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is associated with the inflammation response during atherosclerosis.
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) belongs to the PARP family which is highly conserved during evolution. PARP1 gene is localized at 1q42.12 in the human chromosome.

Application

PARP-1 human has been used in the GST-pull down assay for immunoprecipitation of Glutathione S-transferase (GST) or GST- cyclic GMP- AMP synthase (cGAS) (GST-cGAS). It has also been used in in vitro ribosylation assay.
PARP-1 is a nuclear enzyme that synthesizes ADP-ribose polymers from NAD+, specifically binds Zn2+ and DNA, and recognizes single-strand breaks in DNA. PARP1 has been used in a study to assess racial and tissue-specific cancer risk associated with polymorphism in the PARP1 gene. It has also been used in a study to investigate inhibitors of PARP-1 for potential cancer treatments.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PARP-1 is inactivated by cleavage into a 24kDA and 89kDA fragment by activated caspase-3 or caspase-7. This results in the decreased ability to repair DNA damage and an increase in apoptosis.
PARP-1, a nuclear enzyme that synthesizes ADP-ribose polymers from NAD, specifically binds Zn2+ and DNA, and recognizes single-strand breaks in DNA. It is involved in base excision repair, both short-patch and long-patch, rejoining DNA strand breaks and plays a role in p53 expression and activation. A high level of basal neuronal DNA damage and PARP activity has been reported in rat brain tissue. PARP-1 was shown to be required for HIV-1 integration into DNA. If PARP-1 is deficient there is no productive HIV-1 infection.
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is essential for diverse functions like DNA damage detection and repair, chromatin modification, cell differentiation, transcription and apoptotic cell death. It also plays a major role in spermatogenesis. Polymorphism in the gene PARP1 is associated with oligospermia and causes male infertility.

Poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase-1 (PARP-1) localizes rapidly to sites of DNA damage and has been associated with various repair mechanisms including base excision repair (BER) and homologous recombination/non-homologous end joining (HRR/NHEJ). PARP-1 acts by adding poly-ADP ribose side chains to target
PARP cleavage as a means of assessing apoptosis.

The Val762Ala polymorphism poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1) gene [ADPRT (adenosine diphosphate ribosyltransferase) gene] affects enzymatic activity, which modulates cancer susceptibility among human populations. Individual data on 13,745 cases and 16,947 controls from 28 published case-control studies were re-evaluated. Odds
