“…Macrodomains, typically composed of approximately 120 residues, have been shown to recognize more varied substrates and were shown to bind both PAR and different ADP-ribose metabolites, such as O-acetyl-ADP-ribose as well as mono(ADP-ribosyl)ated (MARylated) proteins Jankevicius et al, 2013;Karras et al, 2005;Kustatscher et al, 2005;Lambrecht et al, 2015). Interestingly, some macrodomains have also evolved enzymatic activity and are capable of processing such ADP-ribose metabolites (Barkauskaite et al, 2013b;Feijs et al, 2013;Jankevicius et al, 2013;Neuvonen and Ahola, 2009;Peterson et al, 2011;Rosenthal et al, 2013;Shull et al, 2005). Therefore, unsurprisingly, macrodomain-containing proteins have been implicated in a diverse set of cellular functions (Ahel et al, 2009;Krietsch et al, 2013;Pehrson and Fried, 1992;Timinszky et al, 2009).…”
