Mitochondria are devoid of poly(ADP‐ribose)polymerase‐1, but harbor its product oligo(ADP‐ribose)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
There are conflicting data about localization of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 and its product poly(ADP-ribose) in mitochondria. To finally clarify the discussion, we investigated with biochemical and cell biological methods the potential presence of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 in these organelles. Our data show that endogenous and overexpressed poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase 1 is only localized to the nucleus with a clear exclusion of cytosolic compartments. In addition, highly purified mitochondria devoid of nuclear contaminations do not contain poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1. Although no poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 enzyme is detectable in mitochondria, a shorter variant of its product poly(ADP-ribose) is present, associated specifically with a small subset of mitochondrial proteins as revealed by immunoprecipitation and protein fingerprint analysis. These proteins are located at key-points of the Krebs-cycle, are chaperones involved in mitochondrial functionality and quality-control, and are RNA-binding proteins important for transcript stability, respectively. Of note, despite the fact that especially poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 is its own major target for modification, we could not detect this enzyme by mass spectrometry in these organelles. These data suggests a new way of targeted nuclear-mitochondrial signaling, mediated by nuclear poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation dependent on poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
