Descriptions

PARP2, also known as ARTD2, is an enzyme that becomes activated by DNA damage, specifically by 5′-phosphorylated DNA ends. It catalyzes poly-ADP-ribosylation, a post-translational modification involved in DNA repair processes. PARP2 plays a crucial role in DNA damage detection and repair, with its activity being essential for maintaining genomic stability and proper cellular function in response to genotoxic stress. In its inactive state, PARP2’s regulatory domain (RD) covers the active site, preventing substrate NAD+ binding. DNA damage recognition leads to RD unfolding and reorganization, enabling the enzyme to access and modify target macromolecules for ADP-ribosylation. The activation of PARP2 by DNA damage induces significant conformational changes in the enzyme, which relieve its autoinhibited state. This allows PARP2 to bind NAD+ and histone PARylation factor 1 (HPF1), altering its residue specificity during DNA repair.

7 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
calcineurin-mediated signaling Any intracellular signal transduction in which the signal is passed on within the cell by activation of a transcription factor as a consequence of dephosphorylation by Ca(2+)-activated calcineurin. The process begins with calcium-dependent activation of the phosphatase calcineurin. Calcineurin is a calcium- and calmodulin-dependent serine/threonine protein phosphatase with a conserved function in eukaryotic species from yeast to humans. In yeast and fungi, calcineurin regulates stress signaling and cell cycle, and sporulation and virulence in pathogenic fungi. In metazoans, calcineurin is involved in cell commitment, organogenesis and organ development and immune function of T-lymphocytes. By a conserved mechanism, calcineurin phosphatase activates fungal Crz1 and mammalian NFATc by dephosphorylation and translocation of these transcription factors to the nucleus to regulate gene expression.
female meiotic nuclear division A cell cycle process by which the cell nucleus divides as part of a meiotic cell cycle in the female germline.
meiotic cell cycle Progression through the phases of the meiotic cell cycle, in which canonically a cell replicates to produce four offspring with half the chromosomal content of the progenitor cell via two nuclear divisions.
protein dephosphorylation The process of removing one or more phosphoric residues from a protein.
regulation of embryonic development Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of embryonic development.
sleep Any process in which an organism enters and maintains a periodic, readily reversible state of reduced awareness and metabolic activity. Usually accompanied by physical relaxation, the onset of sleep in humans and other mammals is marked by a change in the electrical activity of the brain.
wing disc development Progression of the wing disc over time, from its initial formation through to its metamorphosis to form adult structures including the wing hinge, wing blade and pleura.
