PARP inhibition impedes the maturation of nascent DNA strands during DNA replication
24 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is implicated in the detection and processing of unligated Okazaki fragments and other DNA replication intermediates, highlighting such structures as potential sources of genome breakage induced by PARP inhibition. Here, we show that PARP1 activity is greatly elevated in chicken and human S phase cells in which FEN1 nuclease is genetically deleted and is highest...
