Abstract excerpt
PolyADP-ribosylation is a unique posttranslational modification of proteins, involved in various cellular functions including stability of chromatin. PolyADP-ribosylation modifies acceptor proteins with a large negatively charged poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) to greatly change the structure and function of the acceptor proteins. In addition various specific motifs of proteins were recently found to interact...
