PARP3 Antibody - #DF14848

Mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that mediates mono-ADP-ribosylation of target proteins and plays a key role in the response to DNA damage. Mediates mono-ADP-ribosylation of glutamate, aspartate or lysine residues on target proteins. In contrast to PARP1 and PARP2, it is not able to mediate poly-ADP-ribosylation. Associates with a number of DNA repair factors and is involved in the response to exogenous and endogenous DNA strand breaks. Together with APLF, promotes the retention of the LIG4-XRCC4 complex on chromatin and accelerate DNA ligation during non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). Cooperates with the XRRC6-XRCC5 (Ku70-Ku80) heterodimer to limit end-resection thereby promoting accurate NHEJ. Involved in DNA repair by mediating mono-ADP-ribosylation of a limited number of acceptor proteins involved in chromatin architecture and in DNA metabolism, such as XRRC5 and XRCC6. ADP-ribosylation follows DNA damage and appears as an obligatory step in a detection/signaling pathway leading to the reparation of DNA strand breaks. May link the DNA damage surveillance network to the mitotic fidelity checkpoint. In addition to proteins, also able to ADP-ribosylate DNA: mediates DNA mono-ADP-ribosylation of DNA strand break termini via covalent addition of a single ADP-ribose moiety to a 5'- or 3'-terminal phosphate residues in DNA containing multiple strand breaks. Acts as a negative regulator of immunoglobulin class switch recombination, probably by controlling the level of AICDA /AID on the chromatin (By similarity).

Auto-mono-ADP-ribosylated.

Note: Almost exclusively localized in the nucleus and appears in numerous small foci and a small number of larger foci whereas a centrosomal location has not been detected (PubMed:16924674). In response to DNA damage, localizes to sites of double-strand break (PubMed:21270334). Preferentially localized to the daughter centriole (PubMed:10329013).

Widely expressed; the highest levels are in the kidney, skeletal muscle, liver, heart and spleen; also detected in pancreas, lung, placenta, brain, leukocytes, colon, small intestine, ovary, testis, prostate and thymus.

Interacts with PARP1; leading to activate PARP1 in absence of DNA. Interacts with PRKDC. Interacts with XRCC5/Ku80; the interaction is dependent on nucleic acids. Interacts with XRCC6/Ku70; the interaction is dependent on nucleic acids. Interacts with EZH2, HDAC1, HDAC2, SUZ12, YY1, LRIG3 and LIG4.
