Uses
PARG human has been used in the digestion of sciatic nerve sections, in co-immunoprecipitation, in in vitro glycohydrolase activity assay
Biological Activity
Poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase(PARG) hydrolyzes poly(ADP-ribose) at glycosidic(1μμ-2μμ) linkage of ribose-ribose bond to produce free ADP-ribose. It is an endo- and exo-glycosidase. PARG plays arole in DNA repair and replication. Inhibited or depleted PARG in cells aremore prone to DNA-damaging agents. PARG also averts the accumulation of PAR inthe cytoplasm and parthanatos, a caspase-independent PAR-mediated type of celldeath.
