Alteration of poly(ADP‐ribose) glycohydrolase nucleocytoplasmic shuttling characteristics upon cleavage by apoptotic proteases
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is an important post-translational modification which mostly affects nuclear proteins. The major roles of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis are assigned to DNA damage signalling during base excision repair, apoptosis and excitotoxicity. The transient nature and modulation of poly(ADP-ribose) levels depend mainly on the activity of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), the key catabolic enzyme of poly(ADP-ribose). Given the fact that PARG substrate, poly(ADP-ribose), is found almost exclusively in the nucleus and that PARG is mainly localized in the cytoplasm, we wanted to have a closer look at PARG subcellular localization in order to better understand the mechanism by which PARG regulates intracellular poly(ADP-ribose) levels. We examined the subcellular distribution of PARG and of its two enzymatically active C-terminal apoptotic fragments both biochemically and by fluorescence microscopy. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion proteins were constructed for PARG (GFP-PARG), its 74 kDa (GFP-74) and 85 kDa (GFP-85) apoptotic fragments and transiently expressed in COS-7 cells. Localization experiments reveal that all three fusion proteins localize predominantly to the cytoplasm and that a fraction also co-localizes with the Golgi marker FTCD. Moreover, leptomycin B, a drug that specifically inhibits nuclear export signal (NES)-dependent nuclear export, induces a redistribution of GFP-PARG from the cytoplasm to the nucleus and this nuclear accumulation is even more pronounced for the GFP-74 and GFP-85 apoptotic fragments. This observation confirms our hypothesis for the presence of important regions in the PARG sequence that would allow the protein to engage in CRM1-dependent nuclear export. Moreover, the altered nuclear import kinetics found for the apoptotic fragments highlights the importance of PARG N-terminal sequence in modulating PARG nucleocytoplasmic trafficking properties.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
