Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase 1 Mediates Rab5 Inactivation after DNA Damage.

ABSTRACT: Parthanatos is programmed cell death mediated by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) after DNA damage. PARP1 acts by catalyzing the transfer of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymers to various nuclear proteins. PAR is subsequently cleaved, generating protein-free PAR polymers, which are translocated to the cytoplasm where they associate with cytoplasmic and mitochondrial proteins, altering their functions and leading to cell death. Proteomic studies revealed that several proteins involved in endocytosis bind PAR after PARP1 activation, suggesting endocytosis may be affected by the parthanatos process. Endocytosis is a mechanism for cellular uptake of membrane-impermeant nutrients. Rab5, a small G-protein, is associated with the plasma membrane and early endosomes. Once activated by binding GTP
