Investigating the Role of PARylation in Regulating Skeletal Muscle Mass and Function in Healthy Mature Mice
… DNA strand breaks). Poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) is primarily mediated by the family of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) and enzymatically degraded (dePARylation) by hydrolases such as poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). This thesis characterizes the role of poly(ADP-ribose) …

Characterization of Novel Substrates of the Tankyrase and RNF146 Destruction Complex and Mechanisms of its Regulation
… for generating Poly-ADP-ribosylation or PARylation post translational modification has been identified and characterized. A unique member of this family of enzymes, called Poly-ADP-ribose Polymerases (PARPs), are Tankyrases. There are two mammalian Tankyrases, Tankyrase 1 and 2, whose …

Enzymatic synthesis of defined-length poly(ADP-ribose) and the investigation of cell-permeable poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase inhibitors
Poly(ADP-ribosylation) (PARylation) is an important post-translational modification that maintains genomic stability in a cell. Engaging in important cellular processes such as DNA repair and cell death signaling, PARylation has gathered considerable interest as a target for genotoxic chemotherapy …

DEVELOPING SMALL-MOLECULE PROBES AND INHIBITORS FOR ADP-RIBOSE-BINDING PROTEINS
… (MARylation) and poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) have been extensively studied, and many relevant inhibitors have been developed or marketed, drug development for two classes of ADP-ribose-binding proteins has been lacking. The first one is viral macrodomains (Mac), which can bind and …

Development of peptide inhibitors as molecular therapeutics against tandem-repeat proteins
… therapeutic interest in cancers due to its PARylation of Axin1, a subunit of the β-catenin destruction complex. We investigated the design of peptide inhibitors of TNKS ARC domains through a structure guided approach. We first attempted to expand the range of biophysical assays to assess …
