ContentsFunctionPoly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) hydrolizes the ribose-ribose bonds in poly (ADP-ribose). Poly (ADP-ribose) are synthesized after DNA damage. PARG acts as both endo- and exoglycosidase and releases poly (ADP-ribose) of different lengths including monomers[1]. RelevancePARG deficiency leads to cell death. Over-activation of PARP due to oxidative stress culminates in cell dysfunction and necrosis. PARP inhibitors have anti-inflammatory effect[2]. Structural highlightsThe active site of PARG contains two catalytic glutamic acid residues[3]. Water molecules are shown as red spheres. 3D Structures of poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolasePoly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase 3D structures
