PARG: a macrodomain in disguise
Abstract
Our understanding of poly-ADP-ribosylation as a posttranslational modification was limited by the lack of structural information on poly-ADP-ribose (PAR) hydrolysing enzymes. A recent study in Nature (Slade et al., 2011) reports the structure of PAR glycohydrolase (PARG), revealing unexpected similarity to the ubiquitous ADP-ribose-binding macrodomains.
