Popis: ADP-ribosylation is involved in the regulation of DNA repair, transcription, and other processes. The 18 human ADP-ribose transferases with diphtheria toxin homology include ARTD1/PARP1, a cancer drug target. Knowledge of other family members may guide therapeutics development and help evaluate potential drug side effects. Here, we present the crystal structure of human ARTD15/PARP16, a previously uncharacterized enzyme. ARTD15 features an α-helical domain that packs against its transferase domain without making direct contact with the NAD+-binding crevice or the donor loop. Thus, this novel domain does not resemble the regulatory domain of ARTD1. ARTD15 displays auto-mono(ADP-ribosylation) activity and is affected by canonical poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors. These results add to a framework that will facilitate research on a medically important family of enzymes. Background: ADP-ribose transferases ARTD1–3/PARP1–3 have an α-helical domain that closes over the NAD+-binding site. Results: Human ARTD15/PARP16 is a mono(ADP-ribose) transferase with a novel α-helical domain that interacts with a catalytic domain loop. Conclusion: The ARTD15 transferase domain is likely regulated by effector binding to the adjacent helical domain. Significance: This provides a basis for understanding the enzymatic mechanism of this previously uncharacterized enzyme.
