Poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase‐1: Association with nuclear lamins in rodent liver cells

The distribution of poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase‐1 (PARP‐1) over different nuclear compartments was studied by nuclear fractionation procedures and Western analysis revealing a prominent role of the nuclear matrix. This structure is operationally defined by the solubility properties of the A‐ and B‐type lamins under defined experimental conditions. We consistently observed that most of the nuclear matrix‐associated PARP‐1 partitioned, in an active form, with the insoluble, lamin‐enriched protein fractions that were prepared by a variety of established biochemical procedures. These PARP‐1–protein interactions resisted salt extraction, disulfide reduction, RNase and DNase digestion. An inherent ability of PARP‐1 to reassemble with the lamins became evident after a cycle of solubilization/dialysis using either urea or Triton X‐100 and disulfide reduction, indicating that these interactions were dominated by hydrophobic forces. Together with in vivo crosslinking and co‐immunoprecipitation experiments our results show that the lamins are prominent PARP‐1‐binding partners which could contribute to the functional sequestration of the enzyme on the nuclear matrix. © 2004 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
