Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase: molecular biological aspects

G de Murcia et al. Bioessays. 1991 Sep.

Abstract

A number of roles have been ascribed to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase* including involvement in DNA repair, cell proliferation, differentiation and transformation. Cloning of the gene has allowed the development of molecular biological approaches to elucidate the structure and the function(s) of this highly conserved enzyme. This article will review the recent results obtained in this field.
