Endogenous ADP ribosylation of high mobility group proteins 1 and 2 and histone H1 following DNA damage in intact cells. 1985

S Tanuma, and T Yagi, and G S Johnson

Endogenous ADP ribosylation of nonhistone high-mobility group (HMG) proteins and histone H1 was studied in cultured mouse mammary tumor cells following treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). MNNG treatment of cells caused a rapid and transient increase in ADP ribosylation of histone H1 and HMG 1 and 2, whereas (ADP-ribose)n on HMG 14 and 17 was not affected. 3-Aminobenzamide, an inhibitor of (ADP-ribose)n synthetase, prevented the increase in ADP ribosylation of histone H1 and HMG 1 and 2. This inhibitor enhanced the cell-killing effect of MNNG, but had no significant effect on the removal of methylated purines. The preferential increase in ADP ribosylation of HMG 1 and 2 and histone H1 may be necessary for cell recovery from DNA damage.

D009363	Neoplasm Proteins	Proteins whose abnormal expression (gain or loss) are associated with the development, growth, or progression of NEOPLASMS. Some neoplasm proteins are tumor antigens (ANTIGENS, NEOPLASM), i.e. they induce an immune reaction to their tumor. Many neoplasm proteins have been characterized and are used as tumor markers (BIOMARKERS, TUMOR) when they are detectable in cells and body fluids as monitors for the presence or growth of tumors. Abnormal expression of ONCOGENE PROTEINS is involved in neoplastic transformation, whereas the loss of expression of TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEINS is involved with the loss of growth control and progression of the neoplasm.
