Abstract excerpt
Poly(ADP ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a nuclear protein that regulates chromatin remodeling and transcription as well as DNA repair and genome stability pathways. Recent studies have revealed a paradoxical dual role of PARP1 protein in transcription. Specifically, although PARP1 controls transcriptional activation of a subset of genes that are heat shock- or hormone-dependent, it also directly inactivates...
