Changes in poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) and poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase in synchronous HeLa cells. 1976

W R Kidwell, and M G Mage

An antibody has been prepared which is highly specific for poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose). Neither poly(A), DNA, nor a variety of adenine-containing nucleosides or nucleotides were effective in competing with poly(ADP-ribose) for binding to the antibody. Of all compounds tested, only adenosine diphosphate-ribose competed for binding to the antibody. Unlabeled poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) was about 10 000 times more effective in competing with labeled polymer for antibody binding than was adenosine diphosphate-ribose. Using the antibody, the amount of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) was found to increase from early S phase to a peak at mid S with a second, even larger increase seen at the S-G2 transition point in synchronously dividing HeLa cells. Pulse labeling of the polymer with [2-3H]adenosine was also maximal at the same time points. Changes in the levels of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase activity measured in isolated nuclei coincided with the changes in amounts of polymer present in intact cells during progression from S phase into G2.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
