Deskripsi

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) catalyse ADP-ribose posttranslational modifications using NAD+ as a substrate. Here, the authors present the crystal structure of PARP-1 bound to the non-hydrolyzable NAD+ analog BAD and provide insights into the mechanism of PARP-1 allosteric regulation.
