Chemical synthesis of 2″OMeNAD+ and its deployment as an RNA 2'-phosphotransferase (Tpt1) 'poison' that traps the enzyme on its abortive RNA-2'-PO4-(ADP-2″OMe-ribose) reaction intermediate. Nucleic Acids Res 2024; 52:10533-10542. [PMID: 39162230 PMCID: PMC11417386 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkae695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2024] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/21/2024] Open
Abstract
RNA 2'-phosphotransferase Tpt1 catalyzes the removal of an internal RNA 2'-PO4 via a two-step mechanism in which: (i) the 2'-PO4 attacks NAD+ C1″ to form an RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-ribose) intermediate and nicotinamide; and (ii) transesterification of the ADP-ribose O2″ to the RNA 2'-phosphodiester yields 2'-OH RNA and ADP-ribose-1″,2″-cyclic phosphate. Although Tpt1 enzymes are prevalent in bacteria, archaea, and eukarya, Tpt1 is uniquely essential in fungi and plants, where it erases the 2'-PO4 mark installed by tRNA ligases during tRNA splicing. To identify a Tpt1 'poison' that arrests the reaction after step 1, we developed a chemical synthesis of 2″OMeNAD+, an analog that cannot, in principle, support step 2 transesterification. We report that 2″OMeNAD+ is an effective step 1 substrate for Runella slithyformis Tpt1 (RslTpt1) in a reaction that generates the normally undetectable RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-ribose) intermediate in amounts stoichiometric to Tpt1. EMSA assays demonstrate that RslTpt1 remains trapped in a stable complex with the abortive RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-2″OMe-ribose) intermediate. Although 2″OMeNAD+ establishes the feasibility of poisoning and trapping a Tpt1 enzyme, its application is limited insofar as Tpt1 enzymes from fungal pathogens are unable to utilize this analog for step 1 catalysis. Analogs with smaller 2″-substitutions may prove advantageous in targeting the fungal enzymes.

Abstract
The posttranslational modification of proteins with poly(ADP-ribose) was discovered in the sixties. Since then, we have learned that the enzymes involved, the so-called poly(ADP-ribosyl)polymerases (PARPs), are transferases which use cofactor NAD+ to transfer ADP-ribose to their targets. Few PARPs are able to create poly(ADP-ribose), whereas the majority transfers a single ADP-ribose. In the last decade, hydrolases were discovered which reverse mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation, detection methods were developed and new substrates were defined, including nucleic acids. Despite the continued effort, relatively little is still known about the biological function of most PARPs. In this review, we summarise key functions of ADP-ribosylation and introduce emerging insights.

Abstract
RNA capping is a prominent RNA modification that influences RNA stability, metabolism, and function. While it was long limited to the study of the most abundant eukaryotic canonical m7G cap, the field recently went through a large paradigm shift with the discovery of non-canonical RNA capping in bacteria and ultimately all domains of life. The repertoire of non-canonical caps has expanded to encompass metabolite caps, including NAD, FAD, CoA, UDP-Glucose, and ADP-ribose, alongside alarmone dinucleoside polyphosphate caps, and methylated phosphate cap-like structures. This review offers an introduction into the field, presenting a summary of the current knowledge about non-canonical RNA caps. We highlight the often still enigmatic biological roles of the caps together with their processing enzymes, focusing on the most recent discoveries. Furthermore, we present the methods used for the detection and analysis of these non-canonical RNA caps and thus provide an introduction into this dynamic new field.

Abstract
Enzymes that phosphorylate, dephosphorylate, and ligate RNA 5' and 3' ends were discovered more than half a century ago and were eventually shown to repair purposeful site-specific endonucleolytic breaks in the RNA phosphodiester backbone. The pace of discovery and characterization of new candidate RNA repair activities in taxa from all phylogenetic domains greatly exceeds our understanding of the biological pathways in which they act. The key questions anent RNA break repair in vivo are (a) identifying the triggers, agents, and targets of RNA cleavage and (b) determining whether RNA repair results in restoration of the original RNA, modification of the RNA (by loss or gain at the ends), or rearrangements of the broken RNA segments (i.e., RNA recombination). This review provides a perspective on the discovery, mechanisms, and physiology of purposeful RNA break repair, highlighting exemplary repair pathways (e.g., tRNA restriction-repair and tRNA splicing) for which genetics has figured prominently in their elucidation.

Abstract
Tpt1 is an essential agent of fungal and plant tRNA splicing that removes an internal RNA 2'-phosphate generated by tRNA ligase. Tpt1 also removes the 2'-phosphouridine mark installed by Ark1 kinase in the V-loop of archaeal tRNAs. Tpt1 performs a two-step reaction in which the 2'-PO4 attacks NAD+ to form an RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-ribose) intermediate, and transesterification of the ADP-ribose O2″ to the RNA 2'-phosphodiester yields 2'-OH RNA and ADP-ribose-1″,2″-cyclic phosphate. Here, we present structures of archaeal Tpt1 enzymes, captured as product complexes with ADP-ribose-1″-PO4, ADP-ribose-2″-PO4, and 2'-OH RNA, and as substrate complexes with 2',5'-ADP and NAD+, that illuminate 2'-PO4 junction recognition and catalysis. We show that archaeal Tpt1 enzymes can use the 2'-PO4-containing metabolites NADP+ and NADPH as substrates for 2'-PO4 transfer to NAD+. A role in 2'-phospho-NADP(H) dynamics provides a rationale for the prevalence of Tpt1 in taxa that lack a capacity for internal RNA 2'-phosphorylation.

Abstract
Nucleic acid ADP-ribosylation has been established as a novel modification found in a wide diversity of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. tRNA 2'-phosphotransferase 1 (TRPT1/TPT1/KptA) possesses ADP-ribosyltransferase (ART) activity and is able to ADP-ribosylate nucleic acids. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here, we determined crystal structures of TRPT1s in complex with NAD+ from Homo sapiens, Mus musculus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our results revealed that the eukaryotic TRPT1s adopt common mechanisms for both NAD+ and nucleic acid substrate binding. The conserved SGR motif induces a significant conformational change in the donor loop upon NAD+ binding to facilitate the catalytic reaction of ART. Moreover, the nucleic acid-binding residue redundancy provides structural flexibility to accommodate different nucleic acid substrates. Mutational assays revealed that TRPT1s employ different catalytic and nucleic acid-binding residues to perform nucleic acid ADP-ribosylation and RNA 2'-phosphotransferase activities. Finally, cellular assays revealed that the mammalian TRPT1 is able to promote endocervical HeLa cell survival and proliferation. Together, our results provide structural and biochemical insights into the molecular mechanism of TRPT1 for nucleic acid ADP-ribosylation.

Abstract
The study of eukaryotic tRNA processing has given rise to an explosion of new information and insights in the last several years. We now have unprecedented knowledge of each step in the tRNA processing pathway, revealing unexpected twists in biochemical pathways, multiple new connections with regulatory pathways, and numerous biological effects of defects in processing steps that have profound consequences throughout eukaryotes, leading to growth phenotypes in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and to neurological and other disorders in humans. This review highlights seminal new results within the pathways that comprise the life of a tRNA, from its birth after transcription until its death by decay. We focus on new findings and revelations in each step of the pathway including the end-processing and splicing steps, many of the numerous modifications throughout the main body and anticodon loop of tRNA that are so crucial for tRNA function, the intricate tRNA trafficking pathways, and the quality control decay pathways, as well as the biogenesis and biology of tRNA-derived fragments. We also describe the many interactions of these pathways with signaling and other pathways in the cell.

Abstract
The protein-tyrosine/dual-specificity phosphatases and rhodanese domains constitute a sprawling superfamily of Rossmannoid domains that use a conserved active site with a cysteine to catalyze a range of phosphate-transfer, thiotransfer, selenotransfer and redox activities. While these enzymes have been extensively studied in the context of protein/lipid head group dephosphorylation and various thiotransfer reactions, their overall diversity and catalytic potential remain poorly understood. Using comparative genomics and sequence/structure analysis, we comprehensively investigate and develop a natural classification for this superfamily. As a result, we identified several novel clades, both those which retain the catalytic cysteine and those where a distinct active site has emerged in the same location (e.g. diphthine synthase-like methylases and RNA 2' OH ribosyl phosphate transferases). We also present evidence that the superfamily has a wider range of catalytic capabilities than previously known, including a set of parallel activities operating on various sugar/sugar alcohol groups in the context of NAD+-derivatives and RNA termini, and potential phosphate transfer activities involving sugars and nucleotides. We show that such activities are particularly expanded in the RapZ-C-DUF488-DUF4326 clade, defined here for the first time. Some enzymes from this clade are predicted to catalyze novel DNA-end processing activities as part of nucleic-acid-modifying systems that are likely to function in biological conflicts between viruses and their hosts.

Abstract
Nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is centrally important to metabolic reactions that involve redox chemistry. In bacteria, NAD biosynthesis is controlled by different transcription factors, depending on the species. Among the four regulators identified so far, the protein NadQ is reported to act as a repressor of the de novo NAD biosynthetic pathway in proteobacteria. Using comparative genomics, a systematic reconstruction of NadQ regulons in thousands of fully sequenced bacterial genomes has been performed, confirming that NadQ is present in α-proteobacteria and some β- and γ-proteobacteria, including pathogens like Bordetella pertussis and Neisseria meningitidis, where it likely controls de novo NAD biosynthesis. Through mobility shift assay and mutagenesis, the DNA binding activity of NadQ from Agrobacterium tumefaciens was experimentally validated and determined to be suppressed by ATP. The crystal structures of NadQ in native form and in complex with ATP were determined, indicating that NadQ is a dimer, with each monomer composed of an N-terminal Nudix domain hosting the effector binding site and a C-terminal winged helix-turn-helix domain that binds DNA. Within the dimer, we found one ATP molecule bound, at saturating concentration of the ligand, in keeping with an intrinsic asymmetry of the quaternary structure. Overall, this study provided the basis for depicting a working model of NadQ regulation mechanism.

Abstract
RNA function relies heavily on posttranscriptional modifications. Recently, it was shown that certain PARPs and TRPT1 can ADP-ribosylate RNA in vitro. Traditionally, intracellular ADP-ribosylation has been considered mainly as a protein posttranslational modification. To date, it is not clear whether RNA ADP-ribosylation occurs in cells. Here we present evidence that different RNA species are ADP-ribosylated in human cells. The modification of cellular RNA is mediated by several transferases such as TRPT1, PARP10, PARP11, PARP12 and PARP15 and is counteracted by different hydrolases including TARG1, PARG and ARH3. In addition, diverse cellular stressors can modulate the content of ADP-ribosylated RNA in cells. We next investigated potential consequences of ADP-ribosylation for RNA and found that ADPr-capped mRNA is protected against XRN1 mediated degradation but is not translated. T4 RNA ligase 1 can ligate ADPr-RNA in absence of ATP, resulting in the incorporation of an abasic site. We thus provide the first evidence of RNA ADP-ribosylation in mammalian cells and postulate potential functions of this novel RNA modification.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) tightly regulated by the dynamic interplay between its writers, readers and erasers. As an intricate and versatile PTM, ADP-ribosylation plays critical roles in various physiological and pathological processes. In this review, we discuss the major players involved in the ADP-ribosylation cycle, which may facilitate the investigation of the ADP-ribosylation function and contribute to the understanding and treatment of ADP-ribosylation associated disease.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is an ancient, highly conserved, and reversible covalent modification critical for a variety of endogenous processes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. ADP-ribosylation targets proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules (including antibiotics). ADP-ribosylation signalling involves enzymes that add ADP-ribose to the target molecule, the (ADP-ribosyl)transferases; and those that remove it, the (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases. Recently, the toxin/antitoxin pair DarT/DarG composed of a DNA ADP-ribosylating toxin, DarT, and (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolase antitoxin, DarG, was described. DarT modifies thymidine in single-stranded DNA in a sequence-specific manner while DarG reverses this modification, thereby rescuing cells from DarT toxicity. We studied the DarG homologue SCO6735 which is highly conserved in all Streptomyces species and known to be associated with antibiotic production in the bacterium S. coelicolor. SCO6735 shares a high structural similarity with the bacterial DarG and human TARG1. Like DarG and TARG1, SCO6735 can also readily reverse thymidine-linked ADP-ribosylation catalysed by DarT in vitro and in cells. SCO6735 active site analysis including molecular dynamic simulations of its complex with ADP-ribosylated thymidine suggests a novel catalytic mechanism of DNA-(ADP-ribose) hydrolysis. Moreover, a comparison of SCO6735 structure with ALC1-like homologues revealed an evolutionarily conserved feature characteristic for this subclass of macrodomain hydrolases.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation has primarily been known as post-translational modification of proteins. As signalling strategy conserved in all domains of life, it modulates substrate activity, localisation, stability or interactions, thereby regulating a variety of cellular processes and microbial pathogenicity. Yet over the last years, there is increasing evidence of non-canonical forms of ADP-ribosylation that are catalysed by certain members of the ADP-ribosyltransferase family and go beyond traditional protein ADP-ribosylation signalling. New macromolecular targets such as nucleic acids and new ADP-ribose derivatives have been established, notably extending the repertoire of ADP-ribosylation signalling. Based on the physiological relevance known so far, non-canonical ADP-ribosylation deserves its recognition next to the traditional protein ADP-ribosylation modification and which we therefore review in the following.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a modification that targets a variety of macromolecules and regulates a diverse array of important cellular processes. ADP-ribosylation is catalysed by ADP-ribosyltransferases and reversed by ADP-ribosylhydrolases. Recently, an ADP-ribosyltransferase toxin termed 'DarT' from bacteria, which is distantly related to human PARPs, was shown to modify thymidine in single-stranded DNA in a sequence specific manner. The antitoxin of DarT is the macrodomain containing ADP-ribosylhydrolase DarG, which shares striking structural homology with the human ADP-ribosylhydrolase TARG1. Here, we show that TARG1, like DarG, can reverse thymidine-linked DNA ADP-ribosylation. We find that TARG1-deficient human cells are extremely sensitive to DNA ADP-ribosylation. Furthermore, we also demonstrate the first detection of reversible ADP-ribosylation on genomic DNA in vivo from human cells. Collectively, our results elucidate the impact of DNA ADP-ribosylation in human cells and provides a molecular toolkit for future studies into this largely unknown facet of ADP-ribosylation.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a chemical modification of macromolecules found across all domains of life and known to regulate a variety of cellular processes. Notably, it has a well-established role in the DNA damage response. While it was historically known as a post-translational modification of proteins, recent studies have shown that nucleic acids can also serve as substrates of reversible ADP-ribosylation. More precisely, ADP-ribosylation of DNA bases, phosphorylated DNA ends and phosphorylated RNA ends have been reported. We will discuss these three types of modification in details. In a variety of bacterial species, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, ADP-ribosylation of thymidine has emerged as the mode of action of a toxin-antitoxin system named DarTG, with the resultant products perceived as DNA damage by the cell. On the other hand, mammalian DNA damage sensors PARP1, PARP2 and PARP3 were shown to ADP-ribosylate phosphorylated ends of double-stranded DNA in vitro. Additionally, TRPT1 and several PARP enzymes, including PARP10, can add ADP-ribose to the 5'-phosphorylated end of single-stranded RNA in vitro, representing a novel RNA capping mechanism. Together, these discoveries have led to the emergence of a new and exciting research area, namely DNA and RNA ADP-ribosylation, that is likely to have far-reaching implications for the fields of DNA repair, replication and epigenetics.

Abstract
All domains of life utilize a diverse set of modified ribonucleotides that can impact the sequence, structure, function, stability, and the fate of RNAs, as well as their interactions with other molecules. Today, more than 160 different RNA modifications are known that decorate the RNA at the 5'-terminus or internal RNA positions. The boost of next-generation sequencing technologies sets the foundation to identify and study the functional role of RNA modifications. The recent advances in the field of RNA modifications reveal a novel regulatory layer between RNA modifications and proteins, which is central to developing a novel concept called "epitranscriptomics." The majority of RNA modifications studies focus on the eukaryotic epitranscriptome. In contrast, RNA modifications in prokaryotes are poorly characterized. This review outlines the current knowledge of the prokaryotic epitranscriptome focusing on mRNA modifications. Here, it is described that several internal and 5'-terminal RNA modifications either present or likely present in prokaryotic mRNA. Thereby, the individual techniques to identify these epitranscriptomic modifications, their writers, readers and erasers, and their proposed functions are explored. Besides that, still unanswered questions in the field of prokaryotic epitranscriptomics are pointed out, and its future perspectives in the dawn of next-generation sequencing technologies are outlined.

Abstract
Recent years witnessed the discovery of ubiquitous and diverse 5'-end RNA cap-like modifications in prokaryotes as well as in eukaryotes. These non-canonical caps include metabolic cofactors, such as NAD+/NADH, FAD, cell wall precursors UDP-GlcNAc, alarmones, e.g. dinucleotides polyphosphates, ADP-ribose and potentially other nucleoside derivatives. They are installed at the 5' position of RNA via template-dependent incorporation of nucleotide analogues as an initiation substrate by RNA polymerases. However, the discovery of NAD-capped processed RNAs in human cells suggests the existence of alternative post-transcriptional NC capping pathways. In this review, we compiled growing evidence for a number of these other mechanisms which produce various non-canonically capped RNAs and a growing repertoire of capping small molecules. Enzymes shown to be involved are ADP-ribose polymerases, glycohydrolases and tRNA synthetases, and may potentially include RNA 3'-phosphate cyclases, tRNA guanylyl transferases, RNA ligases and ribozymes. An emerging rich variety of capping molecules and enzymes suggests an unrecognized level of complexity of RNA metabolism.

Abstract
Tpt1, an essential component of the fungal and plant tRNA splicing machinery, catalyzes transfer of an internal RNA 2′-PO4 to NAD+ yielding RNA 2′-OH and ADP-ribose-1′,2′-cyclic phosphate products. Here, we report NMR structures of the Tpt1 ortholog from the bacterium Runella slithyformis (RslTpt1), as apoenzyme and bound to NAD+. RslTpt1 consists of N- and C-terminal lobes with substantial inter-lobe dynamics in the free and NAD+-bound states. ITC measurements of RslTpt1 binding to NAD+ (KD ∼31 μM), ADP-ribose (∼96 μM) and ADP (∼123 μM) indicate that substrate affinity is determined primarily by the ADP moiety; no binding of NMN or nicotinamide is observed by ITC. NAD+-induced chemical shift perturbations (CSPs) localize exclusively to the RslTpt1 C-lobe. NADP+, which contains an adenylate 2′-PO4 (mimicking the substrate RNA 2′-PO4), binds with lower affinity (KD ∼1 mM) and elicits only N-lobe CSPs. The RslTpt1·NAD+ binary complex reveals C-lobe contacts to adenosine ribose hydroxyls (His99, Thr101), the adenine nucleobase (Asn105, Asp112, Gly113, Met117) and the nicotinamide riboside (Ser125, Gln126, Asn163, Val165), several of which are essential for RslTpt1 activity in vivo. Proximity of the NAD+ β-phosphate to ribose-C1″ suggests that it may stabilize an oxocarbenium transition-state during the first step of the Tpt1-catalyzed reaction.

Abstract
The functionality of DNA, RNA and proteins is altered dynamically in response to physiological and pathological cues, partly achieved by their modification. While the modification of proteins with ADP-ribose has been well studied, nucleic acids were only recently identified as substrates for ADP-ribosylation by mammalian enzymes. RNA and DNA can be ADP-ribosylated by specific ADP-ribosyltransferases such as PARP1-3, PARP10 and tRNA 2'-phosphotransferase (TRPT1). Evidence suggests that these enzymes display different preferences towards different oligonucleotides. These reactions are reversed by ADP-ribosylhydrolases of the macrodomain and ARH families, such as MACROD1, TARG1, PARG, ARH1 and ARH3. Most findings derive from in vitro experiments using recombinant components, leaving the relevance of this modification in cells unclear. In this Survey and Summary, we provide an overview of the enzymes that ADP-ribosylate nucleic acids, the reversing hydrolases, and the substrates' requirements. Drawing on data available for other organisms, such as pierisin1 from cabbage butterflies and the bacterial toxin-antitoxin system DarT-DarG, we discuss possible functions for nucleic acid ADP-ribosylation in mammals. Hypothesized roles for nucleic acid ADP-ribosylation include functions in DNA damage repair, in antiviral immunity or as non-conventional RNA cap. Lastly, we assess various methods potentially suitable for future studies of nucleic acid ADP-ribosylation.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is an ancient posttranslational modification present in all kingdoms of life. The system likely originated in bacteria where it functions in inter- and intra-species conflict, stress response and pathogenicity. It was repeatedly adopted via lateral transfer by eukaryotes, including humans, where it has a pivotal role in epigenetics, DNA-damage repair, apoptosis, and other crucial pathways including the immune response to pathogenic bacteria and viruses. In other words, the same ammunition used by pathogens is adapted by eukaryotes to fight back. While we know quite a lot about the eukaryotic system, expanding rather patchy knowledge on bacterial and viral ADP-ribosylation would give us not only a better understanding of the system as a whole but a fighting advantage in this constant arms race. By writing this review we hope to put into focus the available information and give a perspective on how this system works and can be exploited in the search for therapeutic targets in the future. The relevance of the subject is especially highlighted by the current situation of being amid the world pandemic caused by a virus harbouring and dependent on a representative of such a system.

Abstract
The enzyme Tpt1 is an essential agent of fungal tRNA splicing that removes an internal RNA 2'-PO4 generated by fungal tRNA ligase. Tpt1 performs a two-step reaction in which: (i) the 2'-PO4 attacks NAD+ to form an RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-ribose) intermediate; and (ii) transesterification of the ADP-ribose O2'' to the RNA 2'-phosphodiester yields 2'-OH RNA and ADP-ribose-1'',2''-cyclic phosphate. Because Tpt1 does not participate in metazoan tRNA splicing, and Tpt1 knockout has no apparent impact on mammalian physiology, Tpt1 is considered a potential anti-fungal drug target. Here we characterize Tpt1 enzymes from four human fungal pathogens: Coccidioides immitis, the agent of Valley Fever; Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans, which cause invasive, often fatal, infections in immunocompromised hosts; and Candida auris, an emerging pathogen that is resistant to current therapies. All four pathogen Tpt1s were active in vivo in complementing a lethal Saccharomyces cerevisiae tpt1∆ mutation and in vitro in NAD+-dependent conversion of a 2'-PO4 to a 2'-OH. The fungal Tpt1s utilized nicotinamide hypoxanthine dinucleotide as a substrate in lieu of NAD+, albeit with much lower affinity, whereas nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide was ineffective. Fungal Tpt1s efficiently removed an internal ribonucleotide 2'-phosphate from an otherwise all-DNA substrate. Replacement of an RNA ribose-2'-PO4 nucleotide with arabinose-2'-PO4 diminished enzyme specific activity by ≥2000-fold and selectively slowed step 2 of the reaction pathway, resulting in transient accumulation of an ara-2'-phospho-ADP-ribosylated intermediate. Our results implicate the 2'-PO4 ribonucleotide as the principal determinant of fungal Tpt1 nucleic acid substrate specificity.

Abstract
The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an important small biomolecule that participates in a variety of physiological functions, and it has been regarded as a potential biomarker for disease diagnosis and a promising target for disease treatment. The conventional methods for NAD+ assay often suffer from complicated procedures, expensive labeling, poor selectivity, and unsatisfactory sensitivity. Herein, we develop a label-free and sensitive method for NAD+ assay based on the integration of a trifunctional split dumbbell probe with ligation-triggered isothermal rolling circle amplification (RCA). We design a trifunctional split dumbbell probe that can act as a probe for NAD+ recognition, a template for RCA reaction, and a substrate for SYBR Green I binding. In the presence of target NAD+, it can serve as a cofactor to active E. coli DNA ligase which subsequently catalyzes the ligation of split dumbbell probe to form a circular template for RCA reaction, generating numerous dumbbell probe amplicons which can be easily and label-free monitored by using SYBR Green I as the fluorescent indicator. Due to the high fidelity of NAD+-dependent ligation and high amplification efficiency of RCA amplification, this method exhibits high sensitivity with a detection limit of 85.6 fM and good selectivity with the capability of discriminating target NAD+ from its analogs. Moreover, this method can be applied for accurate and sensitive detection of NAD+ in complex biological samples and cancer cells, holding great potential in NAD+-related biological researches and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Despite decades of research on ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs) from the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family, one key aspect of these enzymes - their substrate specificity - has remained unclear. Here, we briefly discuss the history of this area and, more extensively, the recent breakthroughs, including the identification of protein serine residues as a major substrate of PARP1 and PARP2 in human cells and of cysteine and tyrosine as potential targets of specific PARPs. On the molecular level, the modification of serine residues requires a composite active site formed by PARP1 or PARP2 together with a specificity-determining factor, HPF1; this represents a new paradigm not only for PARPs but generally for post-translational modification (PTM) catalysis. Additionally, we discuss the identification of DNA as a substrate of PARP1, PARP2 and PARP3, and some bacterial ARTs and the discovery of noncanonical RNA capping by several PARP family members. Together, these recent findings shed new light on PARP-mediated catalysis and caution to 'expect the unexpected' when it comes to further potential substrates.

Abstract
The numerous biological roles of NAD+ are organized and coordinated via its compartmentalization within cells. The spatial and temporal partitioning of this intermediary metabolite is intrinsic to understanding the impact of NAD+ on cellular signaling and metabolism. We review evidence supporting the compartmentalization of steady-state NAD+ levels in cells, as well as how the modulation of NAD+ synthesis dynamically regulates signaling by controlling subcellular NAD+ concentrations. We further discuss potential benefits to the cell of compartmentalizing NAD+, and methods for measuring subcellular NAD+ levels.

The enzyme Tpt1 removes an internal RNA 2'-PO4 via a two-step reaction in which: (i) the 2'-PO4 attacks NAD+ to form an RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-ribose) intermediate and nicotinamide; and (ii) transesterification of the ADP-ribose O2″ to the RNA 2'-phosphodiester yields 2'-OH RNA and ADP-ribose-1″,2″-cyclic phosphate. Because step 2 is much faster than step 1, the ADP-ribosylated RNA intermediate is virtually undetectable under normal circumstances. Here, by testing chemically modified nucleic acid substrates for activity with bacterial Tpt1 enzymes, we find that replacement of the ribose-2'-PO4 nucleotide with arabinose-2'-PO4 selectively slows step 2 of the reaction pathway and results in the transient accumulation of high levels of the reaction intermediate. We report that replacing the NMN ribose of NAD+ with 2'-fluoroarabinose (thereby eliminating the ribose O2″ nucleophile) results in durable trapping of RNA-2'-phospho-(ADP-fluoroarabinose) as a "dead-end" product of step 1. Tpt1 enzymes from diverse taxa differ in their capacity to use ara-2″F-NAD+ as a substrate.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is an intricate and versatile posttranslational modification involved in the regulation of a vast variety of cellular processes in all kingdoms of life. Its complexity derives from the varied range of different chemical linkages, including to several amino acid side chains as well as nucleic acids termini and bases, it can adopt. In this review, we provide an overview of the different families of (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases. We discuss their molecular functions, physiological roles, and influence on human health and disease. Together, the accumulated data support the increasingly compelling view that (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases are a vital element within ADP-ribosyl signaling pathways and they hold the potential for novel therapeutic approaches as well as a deeper understanding of ADP-ribosylation as a whole.

Abstract
In this review, Kim et al. discuss the importance of PARP family members and ADPRylation in gene regulation, mRNA processing, and protein abundance. ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a posttranslational modification of proteins discovered nearly six decades ago, but many important questions remain regarding its molecular functions and biological roles, as well as the activity of the ADP-ribose (ADPR) transferase enzymes (PARP family members) that catalyze it. Growing evidence indicates that PARP-mediated ADPRylation events are key regulators of the protein biosynthetic pathway, leading from rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis to mRNA synthesis, processing, and translation. In this review we describe the role of PARP proteins and ADPRylation in all facets of this pathway. PARP-1 and its enzymatic activity are key regulators of rDNA transcription, which is a critical step in ribosome biogenesis. An emerging role of PARPs in alternative splicing of mRNAs, as well as direct ADPRylation of mRNAs, highlight the role of PARP members in RNA processing. Furthermore, PARP activity, stimulated by cellular stresses, such as viral infections and ER stress, leads to the regulation of mRNA stability and protein synthesis through posttranscriptional mechanisms. Dysregulation of PARP activity in these processes can promote disease states. Collectively, these results highlight the importance of PARP family members and ADPRylation in gene regulation, mRNA processing, and protein abundance. Future studies in these areas will yield new insights into the fundamental mechanisms and a broader utility for PARP-targeted therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Covalent linkage of ADP-ribose units to proteins catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) plays important signaling functions in a plethora of cellular processes including DNA damage response, chromatin organization, and gene transcription. Poly- and mono-ADP-ribosylation of target macromolecules are often responsible both for the initiation and for coordination of these processes in mammalian cells. Currently, the number of cellular targets for ADP-ribosylation is rapidly expanding, and the molecular mechanisms underlying the broad substrate specificity of PARPs present enormous interest. In this review, the roles of PARP-mediated modifications of protein and nucleic acids, the readers of ADP-ribosylated structures, and the origin and function of programmed DNA strand breaks in PARP activation, transcription regulation, and DNA demethylation are discussed.

Abstract
The enzyme Tpt1 removes the 2'-PO4 at the splice junction generated by fungal tRNA ligase; it does so via a two-step reaction in which (i) the internal RNA 2'-PO4 attacks NAD+ to form an RNA-2'-phospho-ADP-ribosyl intermediate; and (ii) transesterification of the ribose O2″ to the 2'-phosphodiester yields 2'-OH RNA and ADP-ribose-1″,2″-cyclic phosphate products. The role that Tpt1 enzymes play in taxa that have no fungal-type RNA ligase remains obscure. An attractive prospect is that Tpt1 enzymes might catalyze reactions other than internal RNA 2'-PO4 removal, via their unique NAD+-dependent transferase mechanism. This study extends the repertoire of the Tpt1 enzyme family to include the NAD+-dependent conversion of RNA terminal 2' and 3' monophosphate ends to 2'-OH and 3'-OH ends, respectively. The salient finding is that different Tpt1 enzymes vary in their capacity and positional specificity for terminal phosphate removal. Clostridium thermocellum and Aeropyrum pernix Tpt1 proteins are active on 2'-PO4 and 3'-PO4 ends, with a 2.4- to 2.6-fold kinetic preference for the 2'-PO4 The accumulation of a terminal 3'-phospho-ADP-ribosylated RNA intermediate during the 3'-phosphotransferase reaction suggests that the geometry of the 3'-p-ADPR adduct is not optimal for the ensuing transesterification step. Chaetomium thermophilum Tpt1 acts specifically on a terminal 2'-PO4 end and not with a 3'-PO4 In contrast, Runella slithyformis Tpt1 and human Tpt1 are ineffective in removing either a 2'-PO4 or 3'-PO4 end.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a reversible chemical modification catalysed by ADP-ribosyltransferases such as PARPs that utilize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) as a cofactor to transfer monomer or polymers of ADP-ribose nucleotide onto macromolecular targets such as proteins and DNA. ADP-ribosylation plays an important role in several biological processes such as DNA repair, transcription, chromatin remodelling, host-virus interactions, cellular stress response and many more. Using biochemical methods we identify RNA as a novel target of reversible mono-ADP-ribosylation. We demonstrate that the human PARPs - PARP10, PARP11 and PARP15 as well as a highly diverged PARP homologue TRPT1, ADP-ribosylate phosphorylated ends of RNA. We further reveal that ADP-ribosylation of RNA mediated by PARP10 and TRPT1 can be efficiently reversed by several cellular ADP-ribosylhydrolases (PARG, TARG1, MACROD1, MACROD2 and ARH3), as well as by MACROD-like hydrolases from VEEV and SARS viruses. Finally, we show that TRPT1 and MACROD homologues in bacteria possess activities equivalent to the human proteins. Our data suggest that RNA ADP-ribosylation may represent a widespread and physiologically relevant form of reversible ADP-ribosylation signalling.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation (ADPr) is an ancient reversible modification of cellular macromolecules controlling major biological processes as diverse as DNA damage repair, transcriptional regulation, intracellular transport, immune and stress responses, cell survival and proliferation. Furthermore, enzymatic reactions of ADPr are central in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including infectious conditions. By providing a review of ADPr signalling in bacterial systems, we highlight the relevance of this chemical modification in the pathogenesis of human diseases depending on host-pathogen interactions. The post-antibiotic era has raised the need to find alternative approaches to antibiotic administration, as major pathogens becoming resistant to antibiotics. An in-depth understanding of ADPr reactions provides the rationale for designing novel antimicrobial strategies for treatment of infectious diseases. In addition, the understanding of mechanisms of ADPr by bacterial virulence factors offers important hints to improve our knowledge on cellular processes regulated by eukaryotic homologous enzymes, which are often involved in the pathogenesis of human diseases.

Abstract
AbstractADP-ribosylation is an ancient and reversible post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins, in which the ADP-ribose moiety is transferred from NAD+ to target proteins by members of poly-ADP-ribosyl polymerase (PARP) family. The 17 members of this family have been involved in a variety of cellular functions, where their regulatory roles are exerted through the modification of specific substrates, whose identification is crucial to fully define the contribution of this PTM. Evidence of the role of the PARPs is now available both in the context of physiological processes and of cell responses to stress or starvation. An emerging role of the PARPs is their control of intracellular transport, as it is the case for tankyrases/PARP5 and PARP12. Here, we discuss the evidence pointing at this novel aspect of PARPs-dependent cell regulation.

Abstract
Tpt1 is an essential agent of fungal tRNA splicing that removes the 2′-PO4 at the splice junction generated by fungal tRNA ligase. Tpt1 catalyzes a unique two-step reaction whereby the 2′-PO4 attacks NAD+ to form an RNA-2′-phospho-ADP-ribosyl intermediate that undergoes transesterification to yield 2′-OH RNA and ADP-ribose-1″,2″-cyclic phosphate products. Because Tpt1 is inessential in exemplary bacterial and mammalian taxa, Tpt1 is seen as an attractive antifungal target. Here we report a 1.4 Å crystal structure of Tpt1 in a product-mimetic complex with ADP-ribose-1″-phosphate in the NAD+ site and pAp in the RNA site. The structure reveals how Tpt1 recognizes a 2′-PO4 RNA splice junction and the mechanism of RNA phospho-ADP-ribosylation. This study also provides evidence that a bacterium has an endogenous phosphorylated substrate with which Tpt1 reacts. Tpt1 catalyzes the final essential step in yeast tRNA splicing and is a potential antifungal target. Here the authors provide structural insights into how Tpt1 recognizes a 2’-PO4 RNA splice junction and the mechanism of RNA phospho-ADP-ribosylation.
