Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase 1 Promotes Transcriptional Repression of Integrated Retroviruses
20 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is a cellular enzyme with a fundamental role in DNA repair and the regulation of chromatin structure, processes involved in the cellular response to retroviral DNA integration. However, the function of PARP-1 in retroviral DNA integration is controversial, probably due to the functional redundancy of the PARP family in mammalian cells. We evaluated the function of PARP-1 in...
