Abstract
Posttranslational modifications are used by cells from all kingdoms of life to control enzymatic activity and to regulate protein function. For many cellular processes, including DNA repair, spindle function, and apoptosis, reversible mono- and polyADP-ribosylation constitutes a very important regulatory mechanism. Moreover, many pathogenic bacteria secrete toxins which ADP-ribosylate human proteins, causing diseases such as whooping cough, cholera, and diphtheria. Whereas the 3D structures of numerous ADP-ribosylating toxins and related mammalian enzymes have been elucidated, virtually nothing is known about the structure of protein de-ADP-ribosylating enzymes. Here, we report the 3Dstructure of human ADP-ribosylhydrolase 3 (hARH3). The molecular architecture of hARH3 constitutes the archetype of an all-alpha-helical protein fold and provides insights into the reversibility of protein ADP-ribosylation. Two magnesium ions flanked by highly conserved amino acids pinpoint the active-site crevice. Recombinant hARH3 binds free ADP-ribose with micromolar affinity and efficiently de-ADP-ribosylates poly- but not monoADP-ribosylated proteins. Docking experiments indicate a possible binding mode for ADP-ribose polymers and suggest a reaction mechanism. Our results underscore the importance of endogenous ADP-ribosylation cycles and provide a basis for structure-based design of ADP-ribosylhydrolase inhibitors.
Figure 1.
Fig. 1. Posttranslational modification of proteins by reversible ADP-ribosylation. ARTs and PARPs transfer the ADP-ribose (ADPR) moiety from -NAD onto specific amino acid side chains or onto ADPR moieties (X) of target proteins under the release of nicotinamide. This modification may lead to either activation or inactivation of the target protein. Protein-ADP-ribosylhydrolases (ARHs and PARGs) hydrolyze the -glycosidic bond between ADPR and the side chain, thereby restoring normal protein function. X can be Arg, Asp, Cys, diphthamide, Glu, or ADPR. In the case of mono-ADP-ribosylation, R and R' are OH groups. In the case of polyADP-ribosylation, attachment of ADPR can take place at the R site (elongation) or at the R' site (branching). In mammals, two distinct subfamilies of ARTs (ART1–5, PARP1–17) and two distinct subfamilies of ARHs (ARH1–3, PARG) exist.

(B) Superposition of the Mg^2+-coordinating residues of the orthorhombic (gray) and monoclinic crystal forms. Residue Asp-300 is slightly shifted but retains its bidentate binding character, whereas Glu-25 of the monoclinic crystal form is shifted by 1.8 Å with respect to those of the orthorhombic crystal form. The residues from the monoclinic crystal form are shown in color.
