【Significance】
h-PARP1 single-particle analysis
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is the first line sensor of DNA damages in the cell, for which the active quaternary structure is still under debates. Although PARP1 has been thought to form a dimer on damaged DNA for trans-PolyADP-ribosylation, several recent studies detected a monomeric DNA recognition and cis-PolyADP-ribosylation of PARP1. The present study provides the first structural evidence of dimeric conformation of full-length human PARP1 with single-particle electron microscopy.
