Characterization of sPARP-1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is an abundant nuclear enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) (pADPr) from its substrate NAD(+) upon binding to DNA strand breaks. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has been implicated in many cellular processes including replication, transcription, and the maintenance of genomic stability. However, studies with mice and cells lacking PARP-1 reveal a critical role for the enzyme in the maintenance of genomic integrity only. Recently, a significant level of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity has been detected in fibroblasts derived from mice lacking PARP-1 following treatment with genotoxic agents (Shieh, W. M., Amé, J-C., Wilson, M. V., Wang, Z-Q., Koh, D. W., Jacobson, M. K., and Jacobson, E. L. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 30069-30072). We have isolated a cDNA that originates from PARP-1 (-/-) fibroblasts and encodes a polypeptide of 493 amino acid residues bearing poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity. This protein, that we named sPARP-1 for short poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1, has a calculated mass of 55.3 kDa and is identical in deduced amino acid sequence to the catalytic domain of PARP-1. Radiation hybrid analysis assigned the sPARP-1 gene to the chromosome 1H5-H6 in an immediate proximity to the known location of PARP-1 gene, indicating that sPARP-1 and PARP-1 are most probably products of the same gene. Active sPARP-1 is present in both PARP-1 (+/+) and PARP-1 (-/-) cells as demonstrated by activity-Western blotting and immunostaining using a specific antibody developed against sPARP-1. Like PARP-1, sPARP-1 is localized in the cell nucleus, uses NAD(+) as a substrate and is inhibited by nicotinamide analogues. sPARP-1 produces pADPr of similar length and structure to that of PARP-1. However, contrary to PARP-1, sPARP-1 does not require DNA strand breaks for its activation, although it is stimulated following genotoxic treatments.

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.
