Abstract Poly (ADP)-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1) is an abundant nuclear protein well-known for its role in DNA repair yet also participates in DNA replication, transcription, and co-transcriptional splicing, where DNA is undamaged. Thus, binding to undamaged regions in DNA and RNA is likely a part of PARP1’s normal repertoire. Here we describe analyses of PARP1 binding to two short single-stranded DNAs, a single-stranded RNA, and a double stranded DNA. The investigations involved comparing the wild-type (WT) full-length enzyme with mutants lacking the catalytic domain (∆CAT) or zinc fingers 1 and 2 (∆Zn1∆Zn2). All three protein types exhibited monomeric characteristics in solution and formed saturated 2:1 complexes with single-stranded T20 and U20 oligonucleotides. These complexes formed without accumulation of 1:1 intermediates, a pattern suggestive of positive binding cooperativity. The retention of binding activities by ∆CAT and ∆Zn1∆Zn2 enzymes suggests that neither the catalytic domain nor zinc fingers 1 and 2 are indispensable for cooperative binding. In contrast, when a double stranded 19mer DNA was tested, WT PARP1 formed a 4:1 complex while the ∆Zn1Zn2 mutant binding saturated at 1:1 stoichiometry. These deviations from the 2:1 pattern observed with T20 and U20 oligonucleotides show that PARP’s binding mechanism can be influenced by the secondary structure of the nucleic acid. Our studies show that PARP1:nucleic acid interactions are strongly dependent on the nucleic acid type and properties, perhaps reflecting PARP1’s ability to respond differently to different nucleic acid ligands in cells. These findings lay a platform for understanding how the functionally versatile PARP1 recognizes diverse oligonucleotides within the realms of chromatin and RNA biology. |
