Show abstract
Recently developed chemical and enzyme-based technologies to install serine ADP-ribosylation onto synthetic peptides have enabled new approaches to study PARP biology. Here, we establish a generalizable strategy to prepare ADP-ribosylated peptides that are compatible with N-terminal, C-terminal and sequential protein ligation reactions. Two unique protein-assembly routes are employed to generate full-length linker histone constructs that are homogenously ADP-ribosylated at known DNA damage-dependent modification sites. We found that serine mono-ADP-ribosylation is sufficient to alleviate linker histone-dependent chromatin compaction, and that this effect is amplified by ADP-ribose chain elongation. Our work will greatly expand the scope of ADP-ribose-modified proteins that can be constructed via semisynthesis, which is rapidly emerging as a robust approach to elucidate the direct effects that site-specific serine mono- and poly-ADP-ribosylation have on protein function.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
