T77 12435-12708 Sentence denotes This concept was further extended to non-histone proteins such as p53, DNA-PK or KU70/80 and led to the definition of a common polymer-binding domain of 22-26 amino acids that conveyed the specific affinity for pADPr (Table 1) (Althaus et al., 1999; Malanga et al., 1998) .
T78 12709-12943 Sentence denotes Notably, the Althaus group had a strong intuition when they raised the innovative hypothesis that ''PARP-associated polymers may recruit signal proteins to sites of DNA breakage and reprogram their functions'' (Althaus et al., 1999) .
T79 12944-13185 Sentence denotes The first defined pADPr-binding motif (PBM) was derived from a region of high similarity in a multiple sequence alignment of proteins involved in signaling pathways that control cell cycle progression and DNA damage (Pleschke et al., 2000) .

T82 13596-13750 Sentence denotes To better define and address prediction accuracy of the PBM, we adopted a strategy based on a refinement of the consensus PBM motif (Gagne et al., 2008) .
T83 13751-13854 Sentence denotes We showed that restrictions to specific amino acid types exist for positions within the PBM (Fig. 2B ).
T84 13855-14127 Sentence denotes The previously reported preference for hydrophobic residues [ACGVILMFYW] was recovered, but there was a clear tendency for limited residue types to be allowed (mostly aliphatic residues), especially at position À1, +1 and +2 relative to the central K/R doublet (Fig. 2B) .
T85 14128-14238 Sentence denotes Clearly, the PBM refers to the conservation of a physical property pattern rather than a fixed sequence motif.
T86 14239-14401 Sentence denotes The refined motif offers a more stringent definition of the original motif that decreases the probability of a PBM arising by chance in a protein database search.
T87 14402-14548 Sentence denotes Computational PBM prediction has proven to be a powerful tool for the identification of protein regions that could mediate interaction with pADPr.
T88 14549-14617 Sentence denotes They have been shown to convey important functions in animal models.

T99 16712-16815 Sentence denotes Furthermore, the PBM often overlaps with important regulatory protein domains (Pleschke et al., 2000) .
T100 16816-17009 Sentence denotes This has triggered the idea that upon binding to pADPr, the PBM could shield a regulatory surface by steric hindrance, thus destabilizing several protein-protein or protein-ligand interactions.
T101 17010-17158 Sentence denotes Alternatively, a highly extended and flexible polymer bound to a protein domain could distort it so that perturbations of the native fold may arise.
T102 17159-17322 Sentence denotes Globally, molecular crowding by the pADPr provides the basis for the concept of ''reprogrammation'' of protein functions as suggested (Malanga and Althaus, 2005) .
T103 17323-17550 Sentence denotes Actually, the affinity of several DNA damage response factors for pADPr can modulate (I) the sensing of DNA lesions; (II) the dynamic chromatin remodeling events and (III) the assembly and functionality of DNA repair complexes.
T104 17551-17761 Sentence denotes We believe that the transient accumulation of pADPr following DNA-dependent PARP activation can result in vast pleiotropic effects on a systems-wide scale that implicates numerous DNA damage response effectors.
T105 17762-17900 Sentence denotes This is supported by the predominant presence of nucleic acid-interacting proteins in the PBM's prediction datasets (Gagne et al., 2008) .
T106 17901-18132 Sentence denotes Indeed, DNA-and RNA-binding modules are significantly over-represented as putative pADPr-binding modules and thus represent a general class of pADPr-targeted proteins with potential for broad implication in the DNA damage response.
T107 18133-18334 Sentence denotes However, in some proteins, the PBM is distinct from the nucleic acid binding domains, such as in AIF, providing the ability of pADPr to modulate protein function in the context of nucleic acid binding.
T108 18335-18479 Sentence denotes Generally, proteins associate in multi-protein complex machineries that execute biological processes that a single protein cannot execute alone.
T109 18480-18698 Sentence denotes Macromolecules that disrupt or stabilize such complexes drive a wide variety of cellular processes. pADPr possesses the biochemical and structural properties to fulfill such functions through non-covalent interactions.
T110 18699-18793 Sentence denotes Similar to DNA and RNA, the pADPr carries a net negative charge due to its phosphate backbone.
T111 18794-18982 Sentence denotes Because these three macromolecules tend to bind positively charged protein domains, some competition exists among DNA, RNA or pADPr for the same binding site in specific cellular contexts.
T112 18983-19109 Sentence denotes Indeed, in addition to the classical PBM, recent studies suggest alternative PBMs located in nucleic acid-interaction domains.
T113 19110-19434 Sentence denotes The glycine-and arginine-rich domain (GAR) lacks hydrophobic amino acids commonly found in PBMs. This region rather accumulates a very high positive charge owing to the presence of a repetition of arginine residues, thus making it an ideal binding surface for a polymer with a high negative charge density such as the pADPr.
T114 19435-19695 Sentence denotes The GAR, also referred to as RGG box and the RG domain, is a protein module typically found in proteins involved in RNA metabolism (Burd and Dreyfuss, 1994) as well as in some chromatin associated proteins (Bernstein and Allis, 2005; Kornblihtt et al., 2009) .

T116 20244-20344 Sentence denotes Evidence that the GAR is a pADPr-binding module came from the study of MRE11 (Haince et al., 2008) .
T117 20345-20625 Sentence denotes MRE11, a core component of the MRN complex (MRE11, RAD50 and NBS1), is responsible for the initial recognition of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), mediates end-resection by its exonuclease activity and together with 53BP1 and other DNA damage response factors, facilitates repair.
T118 20626-20857 Sentence denotes The GAR domain of MRE11 is required for its DNA binding activity (Boisvert et al., 2005; Dery et al., 2008) but also mediates its interaction with pADPr as well as its rapid accumulation at DNA strand breaks (Haince et al., 2008) .
T119 20858-21069 Sentence denotes The MRE11 exonuclease activity is inhibited by pADPr in vitro, suggesting that pADPr may regulate MRE11-dependent end-resection at DSBs or at stalled replication forks, as recently reported (Ying et al., 2012) .
T120 21070-21185 Sentence denotes Interestingly, several other GARcontaining proteins participate in the DNA damage response and genome surveillance.
T121 21186-21367 Sentence denotes In view of the high pADPr level that transiently accumulates at sites of damage, it is suspected that the function of some of these GAR-bearing proteins might be regulated by pADPr.
T122 21368-21589 Sentence denotes 53BP1 regulates repair of DSBs, while the nuclear DNA helicase II (RNA Helicase A) interacts and regulates the DSBs biomarker c-H2AX (Mischo et al., 2005) and the Werner syndrome helicase (WRN) (Friedemann et al., 2005) .
T123 21590-21713 Sentence denotes The nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase (NuRD) complex comprises several core components with affinity for pADPr.
T124 21714-21978 Sentence denotes Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 (MBD2) has a GAR motif, while CHD4 (chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 4) and MTA1 (metastasis associated 1) interact with pADPr through a still undefined motif (Chou et al., 2010; Lai and Wade, 2011; Polo et al., 2010) .
T125 21979-22126 Sentence denotes The latter two proteins are involved in the recruitment of the NuRD complex to DNA strand breaks in a pADPr-dependent manner (Lai and Wade, 2011) .
T126 22127-22324 Sentence denotes Our current understanding suggests that the presence of pADPr acts as a recruitment module for the organization of the PARP1-associated DNA repair and chromatin remodeling machinery at DNA lesions.
T127 22325-22519 Sentence denotes On the other hand, pADPr binding to the GAR domain could be considered as a DNA displacement mechanism required to reconfigure the DNA repair protein complexes and provide access to damaged DNA.
T128 22520-22697 Sentence denotes It may also interfere with other DNA damage-induced posttranslational modifications, such as PRMT1-dependent arginine methylation in the GAR domain (Bedford and Richard, 2005) .
T129 22698-22788 Sentence denotes This view supports a concept where pADPr is a key orchestrator of the DNA damage response.
T130 22789-22979 Sentence denotes Recently, it has been suggested that pADPr regulates post-transcriptional gene regulation in the cytoplasm, notably through the assembly of cytoplasmic stress granules (Leung et al., 2012) .
T131 22980-23080 Sentence denotes In support of this, we showed that the stress granule effector G3BP1 binds pADPr by its GAR domain .
T132 23081-23309 Sentence denotes Importantly, G3BP1-mediated stress granule assembly is impaired by PARP inhibition during genotoxic insult, suggesting that pADPr is critical for the reprogrammation of messenger ribonucleoparticles in cellular stress responses.
T133 23310-23465 Sentence denotes This result adds to the experimental evidence that the pADPrbinding protein AIF functions as a negative regulator of stress granules (Cande et al., 2004) .
T134 23466-23697 Sentence denotes These results emphasize the fact that pADPr can perform various functions in several different DNA damage-processing pathways and can enable a crosstalk between the regulation of the early and late steps of the DNA damage response.
T135 23698-23901 Sentence denotes The RNA recognition motif (RRM), also referred to as RNA-binding domain (RBD) or ribonucleoprotein domain (RNP), is the most abundant nucleic acid-binding motif in the human genome (Clery et al., 2008) .

T137 23970-24032 Sentence denotes RRMs may be found in conjunction with GAR-containing proteins.
T138 24033-24368 Sentence denotes One prominent example is hnRNP A1 that possesses two RRMs in addition to its GAR motif. hnRNPs are highly versatile proteins that can participate in various aspects of nucleic acid metabolism: mRNA stability and splicing, DNA replication, chromatin remodeling, telomere maintenance, DNA repair and genome stability (Han et al., 2010) .
T139 24369-24555 Sentence denotes Based on a proteome-wide screen to identify pADPr-binding proteins, our laboratory was the first to identify hnRNPs as a family of proteins with affinity for pADPr (Gagne et al., 2003) .
T140 24556-24800 Sentence denotes More recently, Ji and Tulin (2009) validated this finding by providing evidence that hrp38 (the Drosophila melanogaster homologue of human hnRNP A1) binds pADPr in a non-covalent way in vivo, with the consequence of reduced RNA-binding ability.
T141 24801-25021 Sentence denotes RNA processing factors (such as NONO and RBMX) recently emerged as guardians of genomic stability with widespread involvement in preventing DNA damage (Adamson et al., 2012; Krietsch et al., 2012; Paulsen et al., 2009) .
T142 25022-25256 Sentence denotes Both NONO (Non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein) and RBMX (RNA-binding motif protein, X chromosome) comprise RRMs and are recruited in a pADPr-dependent manner to DNA damage (Adamson et al., 2012; Krietsch et al., 2012) .
T143 25257-25331 Sentence denotes We have recently reported the binding of pADPr to the RRM1 domain of NONO.
T144 25332-25428 Sentence denotes As it was observed for hnRNPA1, pADPr interfered with the interaction of NONO with RNA in vitro.
T145 25429-25579 Sentence denotes Notably, the binding of NONO to pADPr by RRM1 is crucial for the recruitment of NONO to DNA damage sites and influences the outcome of DNA DSB repair.
T146 25580-25654 Sentence denotes The high binding affinity of pADPr to NONO was assessed by SPR (Table 2 ).
T147 25655-25821 Sentence denotes Similar to DEK and XPA described above, NONO showed a strong affinity for non-fractionated and long pADPr chains while no binding was detected for short pADPr chains.
T148 25822-25932 Sentence denotes These observations therefore provide further support for RRMs as biologically relevant pADPr-binding modules .
T149 25933-26145 Sentence denotes Given the frequent occurrence of RRM-containing proteins in the human proteome, interactions with pADPr are likely to have a significant impact on cell signaling through a complex network of biochemical pathways.
T150 26146-26385 Sentence denotes Another large group of RRM-containing proteins that bind to RNAs are the SR (Serine/Arginine repeats) proteins (Long and Caceres, 2009 ) that, along with hnRNPs, contribute to the formation of messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs).
T151 26386-26487 Sentence denotes It has been shown that the SR protein ASF/SF2 binds pADPr with high affinity (Malanga et al., 2008) .
T152 26488-26654 Sentence denotes Two domains in ASF/SF2 can mediate the interaction with pADPr: (I) a N-terminal fragment that contains a RRM1 and (II) a C-terminal SR domain (Malanga et al., 2008) .
T153 26655-26918 Sentence denotes Given that the SR domain carries an excess positive charge with the predominance of arginine residues, this pADPr-binding feature resembles that of the GAR which also harbors a basic arginine-rich cluster expected to interact with the phosphate backbone of pADPr.
T154 26919-27077 Sentence denotes Similarly, strong pADPr-binding was observed in lysine-and arginine-rich (K/R-rich) motifs located in the nucleosome remodeler dMi-2 (Murawska et al., 2011) .
T155 27078-27365 Sentence denotes It remains to be determined whether the presence of a basic electrostatic patch on a protein surface could be considered as a general pADPr-protein interface or if additional structural determinants are required (such as the helical conformation of the SR domain (Sellis et al., 2012) ).
T156 27366-27552 Sentence denotes Zinc fingers specifically interacting with pADPr rather than DNA or RNA were discovered in a subset of proteins related directly or indirectly with pADPr metabolism (Ahel et al., 2008) .
T157 27553-27765 Sentence denotes This newly identified C2H2-type ''pADPr-binding zinc finger'' (PBZ) has a consensus sequence defined as [K/R]xxCx[F/Y]GxxCxbbxxxxHxxx[F/Y]xH where b denotes a basic residue and x any residue (Ahel et al., 2008) .
T158 27766-27842 Sentence denotes PBZ domains have been observed only in eukaryotic proteins, excluding yeast.
T159 27843-28023 Sentence denotes The absence of PBZ motifs in prokaryote and yeast proteins parallels the absence of pADPr metabolism in those, suggesting a coevolution of the PBZ motif with the presence of PARPs.
T160 28024-28289 Sentence denotes Only three human proteins appear to carry a PBZ motif: the aprataxin and PNK-like factor (APLF, also called XIP1, PALF), the checkpoint protein with FHA and RING domains (CHFR), and the DNA cross-link repair 1A protein (DCLRE1A/SNM1A) (Fig. 3) (Ahel et al., 2008) .
T161 28290-28419 Sentence denotes Interestingly, the PBZ module was found in some non-human proteins involved in the maintenance of genome integrity or DNA repair:

T164 28659-28769 Sentence denotes Human CHFR and DCLRE1A contain a unique PBZ while APLF has two PBZ placed in tandem (PBZ1 and PBZ2 - Fig. 3) .
T165 28770-29126 Sentence denotes Structural studies of the PBZ domains with small molecules that mimic the features of pADPr have revealed that besides the cysteines and histidines coordinating the Zn ion, critical aromatic residues mediate interactions with the adenine ring of ADPr (Ahel et al., 2008; Eustermann et al., 2010; Isogai et al., 2010; Li et al., 2010; Oberoi et al., 2010) .
T166 29127-29332 Sentence denotes The lack of conservation of most of these critical binding residues in the PBZ sequence of DCLRE1A suggests that it may not bind pADPr, but this has not been experimentally assessed (Oberoi et al., 2010) .
T167 29333-29523 Sentence denotes The affinity of CHFR (5 Â 10 À10 M) and APLF (9.5 Â 10 À10 M) for pADPr measured by SPR indicates that this module has the highest affinity for pADPr of all pADPr-binding domains (Table 2) .
T168 29524-29647 Sentence denotes Interestingly, the affinity of APLF for pADPr is in the same range than that of CHFR, despite the fact that it has two PBZ.
T169 29648-29867 Sentence denotes Each PBZ of APLF binds independently pADPr, but with reduced affinity relative to the tandem PBZ and the full length protein (Table 2) (Ahel et al., 2008; Eustermann et al., 2010; Li et al., 2010; Rulten et al., 2008) .

T171 30000-30289 Sentence denotes These observations are in line with the structural details of CHFR and APLF, which strongly suggested that the CHFR PBZ and the PBZ1 domain of APLF are able to interact with two consecutive ADPr moieties in pADPr while the second PBZ of APLF probably binds only one (Oberoi et al., 2010) .
T172 30290-30479 Sentence denotes These observations are also consistent with the more deleterious effects of mutations in PBZ1 than in PBZ2 for the recruitment of APLF to UV-induced DNA strand breaks Rulten et al., 2008) .
T173 30480-30629 Sentence denotes PBZ1 may also interact with PARP1 as well, providing further affinity of PBZ1 for automodified PARP1 (Eustermann et al., 2010; Macrae et al., 2008) .
T174 30630-30910 Sentence denotes The role of APLF in the DNA damage response and repair via the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway has been recognized by several research groups (Bekker-Jensen et al., 2007; Iles et al., 2007; Kanno et al., 2007; Li et al., 2010; Macrae et al., 2008; Rulten et al., 2008) .

T176 31049-31158 Sentence denotes APLF is rapidly recruited to DNA strand breaks introduced by UV irradiation via both its FHA and PBZ domains.
T177 31159-31360 Sentence denotes While the FHA domain mediates interactions with the repair proteins XRCC1 and XRCC4, the tandem PBZ domain directs pADPr-dependent recruitment of APLF to DNA strand breaks, where APLF facilitates NHEJ.
T178 31361-31523 Sentence denotes Both PARP1 and PARP3-dependent poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation have been shown to promote APLF responses to DNA strand breaks (Rulten et al., 2008 (Rulten et al., , 2011 .
T179 31524-31821 Sentence denotes Similar to APLF, CHFR comprises a phospho-binding FHA module but also a RING finger domain with E3 ubiquitin ligase activity that plays an essential role in the antephase checkpoint, delaying mitotic entry under certain stress conditions (Chaturvedi et al., 2002; Scolnick and Halazonetis, 2000) .
T180 31822-32102 Sentence denotes This function of CHFR is dependent on its interaction with PARP1 and pADPr, because mutations in the CHFR PBZ that disrupts pADPr-binding as well as PARP inhibitors both abolish the CHFR-dependent mitotic checkpoint (Ahel et al., 2008; Kashima et al., 2012; Oberoi et al., 2010) .
T181 32103-32241 Sentence denotes Recently, a mechanistic interplay behind CHFR and pADPr interactions inducing a mitotic entry delay was uncovered (Kashima et al., 2012) .
T182 32242-32395 Sentence denotes The activation of PARP1 following mitotic stress promotes the pADPr-dependent ubiquitylation of PARP1 by CHFR and its proteasomal degradation (Fig. 4A ).
T183 32396-32500 Sentence denotes This finding further revealed that PARP1 levels must be critically controlled during cell proliferation.
T184 32501-32554 Sentence denotes The binding of DCLRE1A to pADPr has not been studied.
T185 32555-32704 Sentence denotes This protein has an endonuclease function and it is involved in the repair of DNA interstrand cross-links (Hazrati et al., 2008; Yang et al., 2010) .
T186 32705-32868 Sentence denotes However, the putative PBZ does not comprise the aromatic residues needed to contact pADPr, suggesting that its functions are independent of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation.
T187 32870-33043 Sentence denotes The macro domain was first described in a variant of the histone H2A, as a 130-190 amino acid module on the C-terminal side of the histone domain (Pehrson and Fried, 1992) .

T190 33461-33650 Sentence denotes It revealed an organization of helices and sheets reminiscent of the P-loop found in nucleotide hydrolases, suggesting a related enzymatic function for the macro fold (Allen et al., 2003) .
T191 33651-33932 Sentence denotes Additional studies with Af1521 and with the yeast macro domain protein YBR022 W supported this observation as they revealed the ability of these macro domains to hydrolyze ADP-ribose-1''-phosphate into ADPr and inorganic phosphate (Pi) (Karras et al., 2005; Martzen et al., 1999) .
T192 33933-34201 Sentence denotes Subsequent studies indicated that some macro domains could not only interact with ADPr but also with pADPr, making it a novel pADPr-interaction module (Ahel et al., 2009; Gottschalk et al., 2009; Karras et al., 2005; Neuvonen and Ahola, 2009; Timinszky et al., 2009) .
T193 34202-34304 Sentence denotes Based on primary amino acid sequence comparisons, 11 human proteins comprise a macro domain (Fig. 3) .
T194 34305-34639 Sentence denotes This macro domain may exist on its own (macroD1, also called MDO1 and LRP16, macroD2 also called MDO2 and C6orf130) or in association with the histone fold (macrohistones H2A), the PARP catalytic domain (PARP9, 14 and 15), the SNF2/helicase ATPase domain (ALC1/CHD1L), or the Sec14p/CRAL-TRIO protein-lipid interaction module (GDAP2).
T195 34640-34908 Sentence denotes Intriguingly, macroPARPs (also called BAL PARPs) have the unique feature of bearing two (PARP9 and PARP15) or even three (PARP14) macro domains in tandem, which, in PARP14, are further associated with two more putative pADPr binding modules, a RRM and a WWE (Fig. 3) .
T196 34909-35078 Sentence denotes The affinity of most human macro domain proteins for NAD + -derived metabolites permits the assessment of the importance of this module for pADPr binding and metabolism.
T197 35079-35302 Sentence denotes It should be stressed that, out of nine macro domain-containing human proteins so far tested for pADPr binding (PARP14 and PARP15 have not been examined), only four bind pADPr (namely macroH2A1.1, CHD1L, macroD1 and PARP9).
T198 35303-35385 Sentence denotes The others have affinity only for ADPr or O-acetyl-ADP-ribose ( Fig. 1; Table 2 ).
T199 35386-35593 Sentence denotes Furthermore, the detailed structural analysis of macroH2A1.1 revealed that it is able to bind solely the terminal ADPr of the polymer, indicating that its macro domain is in practice an ADPr binding module .
T200 35594-35723 Sentence denotes Therefore, structural details critically affect the ability of the macro fold binding pocket to accommodate ligands such as ADPr.
T201 35724-35846 Sentence denotes For instance, the macroH2A1.2 and macroH2A2 variants as well as GDAP2 do not interact with ADPr Till and Ladurner, 2009 ).
T202 35847-36090 Sentence denotes While the structural characteristics of macroH2A1.2 differ only slightly from those of the macroH2A1.1 variant, three additional amino acid residues in macroH2A1.2 critically fall in the ADPr binding pocket, thereby hindering the interaction .

T205 36433-36732 Sentence denotes The binding of viral macro domains to ADPr is at least 10-fold lower (K D of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus is 24 lM, that of hepatitis E virus above 50 lM) but interactions with pADPr have been shown by polymer blot assays (Egloff et al., 2006; Neuvonen and Ahola, 2009) .
T206 36733-36824 Sentence denotes It remains to be determined whether this interaction is critical for viral host infections.
T207 36825-37015 Sentence denotes Collectively, these observations indicate that the presence of a macro fold hints to a possible interaction with ADPr-related metabolites, which however needs to be experimentally addressed.
T208 37016-37188 Sentence denotes Recent structural analysis of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) revealed the striking finding that its pADPr-interaction module folds in a macro domain-like structure.
T209 37189-37420 Sentence denotes First identified in the distantly PARG-related bacterial protein DUF2263, this finding was then confirmed with the structural analysis of a protozoan PARG and rat PARG (Dunstan et al., 2012; Kim et al., 2012a; Slade et al., 2011) .
T210 37421-37684 Sentence denotes Therefore, despite minimal sequence similarity between the typical macro domain and PARG, part of the PARG catalytic domain adopts this characteristic macro fold organization in which the PARG sequence signature GGG-X 6-8 -QEE lines the ADP-ribose binding pocket.
T211 37685-37901 Sentence denotes However, in the mammalian PARG, additional essential sequences extending beyond the macro domain adopt structural conformations around the macro fold that specify the catalytic pocket and the glycohydrolase activity.
T212 37902-38185 Sentence denotes Importantly, a unique ''tyrosine clasp'' near the catalytic pocket offers an explanation for the exoglycosidic and endoglycosidic activities of mammalian PARG towards pADPr (Brochu et al., 1994) , the latter endoglycosidic activity lacking in the bacterial PARG (Kim et al., 2012a) .
T213 38186-38419 Sentence denotes These recent findings have thus highlighted that some macro domains may only be revealed once the 3D structure is determined, indicating that there may be other pADPr-binding macro proteins in mammalian cells awaiting identification.
T214 38420-38563 Sentence denotes Many of the macro domain-ADPr/pADPr interactions have been examined in vitro, using purified macro domains or proteins and purified ADPr/pADPr.
T215 38564-38768 Sentence denotes Because PARPs catalyze the addition of ADPr onto protein substrates, it will be critical to investigate whether the macro-ADPr interaction can be extended to ADPr covalently attached to acceptor proteins.
T216 38769-38960 Sentence denotes A recent study using synthetic peptides corresponding to mono-ADP-ribosylated histone H2B tail showed that it could be the case, as macroH2A1.1 did bind such peptides (Moyle and Muir, 2010) .

T219 39197-39427 Sentence denotes The three stand-alone macro domain proteins, namely macroD1, macroD2, and C6orf130, appear to form a subgroup of macro domain proteins showing this deacetylase activity by cleaving the ester bond between the acetyl group and ADPr.
T220 39428-39589 Sentence denotes One could envision that some macro domain proteins possessing O-acetyl-ADPr deacetylase activity may be able to hydrolyze the protein-ADPr ester bond (Fig. 1B) .
T221 39590-39675 Sentence denotes Until now, the ability of PARG and ARH3 to fulfill this function has been questioned.
T222 39676-39936 Sentence denotes The existence of a distinct enzyme (an ADP-ribose lyase) able to hydrolyze the ester bond between the glutamic or aspartic acid residue of the acceptor protein and ADPr has been proposed nearly 30 years ago (Oka et al., 1984) , but remains to be characterized.
T223 39937-40163 Sentence denotes However, the recent indications that lysines could also constitute ADPr acceptor sites on PARP1 and histones, forming a ketamine in this case (Fig. 1B) Messner et al., 2010) , suggest that there may be more than one ''lyase''.

T225 40244-40444 Sentence denotes Macrohistones and CHD1L contribute to the structure of chromatin (see Sections 4.4 and 4.5) and regulatory transcriptional functions have been ascribed to PARP9, PARP14, macroD1 and macroH2A variants.
T226 40445-40754 Sentence denotes The latter macrohistones have been generally linked to transcriptional repression as they induce a more condensed chromatin state and impede access to transcription factors, although in some specific cases they can also promote transcription (reviewed by (Gamble and Kraus, 2010) ) (Muthurajan et al., 2011) .
T227 40755-40846 Sentence denotes PARP9 was also shown to repress transcription via its macro domains (Aguiar et al., 2005) .
T228 40847-41152 Sentence denotes In contrast, PARP14, also named CoaSt6 because of its co-activator function for the transcription factor Stat6, promotes interleukin-4 dependent gene activation in a manner dependent on its macrodomains as well on its mono-ADP-ribosyl-transferase activity (Goenka and Boothby, 2006; Goenka et al., 2007) .
T229 41153-41384 Sentence denotes MacroD1, originally named leukemia related protein 16 (LRP16), was identified as a co-activator of androgen and estrogen receptor transcriptional activity as well as of NF-jB (Han et al., 2007; Wu et al., 2011; Yang et al., 2009 ).
T230 41385-41464 Sentence denotes This transcriptional co-activation of macroD1 is dependent on its macro domain.
T231 41465-41580 Sentence denotes Collectively, these examples suggest that pADPr-macro domain interactions contribute to transcriptional regulation.
T232 41581-41817 Sentence denotes The most recently discovered pADPr-binding motif, the so-called WWE domain, is named after its most conserved amino acids (tryptophan (W) and glutamate (E)), which are flanked by an otherwise rather low degree of sequence conservation .
T233 41818-42023 Sentence denotes The 12 human proteins that contain a WWE domain (Fig. 3 ) belong mostly to two functional classes of proteins, namely those associated with ubiquitylation and those associated with poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation .
T234 42024-42260 Sentence denotes The best studied example is the RING finger protein 146 (RNF146) also called Iduna. pADPr binding of Iduna/RNF146 was first ascribed to a PBM which was further defined as part of the WWE domain that mediates the interaction with pADPr .
T235 42261-42451 Sentence denotes The structural characteristics of the Iduna/RNF146 WWE domain and its interaction with pADPr were thoroughly investigated by polymer blot assays, NMR and crystallography Wang et al., 2012) .
T236 42452-42555 Sentence denotes Iso-ADPr rather than ADPr is the smallest unit that can be bound by the Iduna/RNF146 domain (Fig. 1B) .
T237 42556-42746 Sentence denotes The lack of interaction between WWE and ADPr was explained by the need for phosphate groups on either side of the adenine-ribose structure to make extensive contacts with the binding pocket.
T238 42747-42892 Sentence denotes This supported the idea that the WWE domain is a pADPr-binding module because at least two ADPr units are needed to generate the iso-ADPr ligand.
T239 42893-43055 Sentence denotes The proposed structure is compatible with interactions with iso-ADPr within longer pADPr chains , consistent with the co-purification of Iduna/RNF146 with pADPr .
T240 43056-43154 Sentence denotes Four residues have been identified as crucial for iso-ADPr-binding in the Iduna/RNF146 WWE domain.
T241 43155-43374 Sentence denotes These residues are well conserved throughout most human WWE domains , including the putative or demonstrated ubiquitin ligases Deltex 1,2,4, HUWE1 and TRIP12, which have been shown by SPR to also bind pADPr ( Table 2 ).
T242 43375-43537 Sentence denotes The WWE domains of several PARP family members (PARP11, PARP13 and the first WWE of PARP12) also comprise the conserved residues, suggesting that they bind pADPr.
T243 43538-43683 Sentence denotes Only the binding of PARP11 has been examined, and showed interactions with ADPr and pADPr with rather low affinity (Table 2) Wang et al., 2012) .
T244 43684-43941 Sentence denotes In contrast, two of the residues are not conserved in the second WWE of PARP12, in TiPARP, PARP14 and the putative phospholipase DDHD2, suggesting that these may not bind pADPr, as shown for DDHD2 (DDHD domain containing 2) in in vitro binding experiments .
T245 43942-44130 Sentence denotes A common theme among WWE containing proteins is the association with domains of the E3 ligase type, strongly suggesting a functional link between ubiquitylation and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation.
T246 44131-44281 Sentence denotes This link was uncovered in the regulation of Wnt/b-catenin signaling pathway by tankyrases and Iduna/RNF146 (Huang et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2011) .
T247 44282-44412 Sentence denotes This pathway, essential for embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis, is tightly regulated by the concentration of axin.
T248 44413-44541 Sentence denotes It turns out that axin is a substrate for tankyrase such that its poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation allows its recognition by Iduna/RNF146.
T249 44542-44664 Sentence denotes Binding of Iduna/RNF146 to poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated axin triggers axin ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation (Fig. 4A) .
T250 44665-44903 Sentence denotes Interestingly, we concurrently showed that Iduna/RNF146 plays a prominent role in the context of DNA damage through its pADPr-dependent E3 ligase activity as it also ubiquitylates several DNA repair factors in a way that depends on pADPr.

T44 56948-57212 Sentence denotes It has been shown that the overexpression of the SG-PARPs promotes the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of mRNA-associated proteins and the assembly of SGs, while PARG overexpression inhibits their appearance supporting a key role for pADPr in the assembly of SG (Fig. 4C ).
T45 57213-57375 Sentence denotes This notion was further supported by the identification of G3BP1, one of the primary nucleator of SGs (Kedersha and Anderson, 2007) , as a pADPr-binding protein .

T50 57822-58021 Sentence denotes One model stipulates that histones, which are poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated after PARP activation, are less tightly bound to DNA, thereby inducing relaxation (Ball and Yokomori, 2011; Poirier et al., 1982) .
T51 58022-58121 Sentence denotes Another mechanism has arisen from studies of the non-covalent interaction of ALC1/CHD1L with pADPr.
T52 58122-58341 Sentence denotes PARP1 activation not only recruits this protein to sites of DNA damage, it also stimulates its ATPase activity and induces CHD1Ldependent nucleosome repositioning (Fig. 4D) (Ahel et al., 2009; Gottschalk et al., 2009 ).
T53 58342-58567 Sentence denotes This PARP-dependent function of CHD1L may be of importance during DNA damage signaling and repair of DNA strand breaks, as well as of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers by nucleotide excision repair (Fig. 4E) Pines et al., 2012) .
T54 58568-58974 Sentence denotes Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation in the context of DNA damage responses has long been recognized, but the concept is emerging that it is not involved in the DNA repair processes per se. pADPr synthesis at sites of DNA lesions triggers the recruitment of many DNA damage mediators and repair factors as well as chromatin remodeling and may serve as a scaffold for the assembly of repair complexes (Table 1; Fig. 4E ).

T82 64395-64693 Sentence denotes Over 60 human proteins have been shown to interact with pADPr (Table 1) , but based on in silico predictions of the occurrence of the PBM sequence, there may be over 500 of them, and many more if we consider that proteins in complexes with pADPr-binding proteins are (indirectly) affected by pADPr.
T83 64694-65020 Sentence denotes Because the PBM represents a short contiguous protein segment, examination of other context criteria, such as protein surface accessibility, evolutionary conservation as well as the determination of three-dimensional PBM-bound pADPr complexes will help to establish the local structural environment required for pADPr-binding.
T84 65021-65206 Sentence denotes Because of this potential that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation affects a significant portion of the proteome, it is crucial to pursue the extensive examination of the pADPr-protein interactions.
T85 65207-65327 Sentence denotes In this regard, it is very intriguing to consider the high number of pADPr-binding proteins working in a single pathway.
T86 65328-65564 Sentence denotes One may envision that there is a ''pADPr code'' where the length, complexity, and conformation adopted by pADPr covalently linked to a particular protein target, all contribute to favor some non-covalent interactions relative to others.

T96 66828-67213 Sentence denotes Considering the critical functions of Iduna/RNF146 in directing poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated proteins towards proteasomal degradation, and the high catabolic activity of PARG, it is conceivable that some functional aspects of pADPr-binding proteins may consist in protecting pADPr from degradation, or in shielding the pADPr from Iduna/RNF146/CHFR to protect target proteins from degradation.
T97 67214-67321 Sentence denotes We can also wonder whether there may be pADPr-dependent deubiquitylases that further regulate this process.
