Purified PARP domain of TNKS2 is catalytically active and competent to ribosylate recombinant 3BP2 protein in vitro. An in vitro PARsylation assay was performed using purified PARP domain of TNKS2 and 3BP2 (lanes 4–7) as a substrate or BSA (lane 3) as a control. The PARP inhibitors 3-AB (lane 5), PJ-34 (lane 6) and AZD-2281 (lane 7) were used to inhibit the activity of the PARP domain. Reactions with PARP domain (lane 1) or 3BP2 (lane 2) alone were performed as negative controls. The amount of purified PARP domain and 3BP2/BSA used for reaction was confirmed by Coomassie Blue staining (lower panel). |
