( D ) Diagrams showing calculation of the relative level of PARP2 activity in the presence of HPF1 after separation of the products by 10% SDS–PAGЕ . PARP2 (30 nM) was incubated with damaged DNA (12.5 nM), 0.3 mM NAD + , and 0.4 μCi [ 32 P]-NAD + in the absence or presence of HPF1 (30–960 nM). The relative level of PAR synthesis was normalized to the level of PAR synthesis catalyzed by PARP2 alone for 30 min without HPF1.

    PARG was able to efficiently hydrolyze PAR synthesized by PARP1(2) in the presence of HPF1 under conditions of FUS compartment formation. ( A ) Representative AFM images of DNA-rich compartments formed by FUS after PARP1 activation in the absence or presence of HPF1 (30–480 nM) and subsequent hydrolysis of PAR by 40 nM PARG for 30 min. Scale bar: 400 nm; Z scale: 2 nm. AFM images of PARylated PARP1 (30 nM) after incubation with damaged pBR plasmid (12.5 nM) and HPF1 (30–480 nM) for 5 min in the presence of NAD + (0.3 mM) and followed by the addition of FUS (400 nM) and incubation for 1 min before addition of PARG (40 nM). ( B ) The diameter of the compartments was measured in images obtained in conditions similar to Fig. (red circle, before PARG adding) and in images shown in panel (A) (green circle, 30 minutes after adding PARG). ∗ P <.05; *** P <.001; **** P <.0001; ns, nonsignificant, paired t -test; n = 13 per sample (at 0, 30, 60, 120, and 240 nM HPF1 in the absence or presence of PARG) and n = 6 per sample (480 nM HPF1 in the absence of PARG). Horizontal bars indicate mean; scanned area: 30 μm 2 per sample, three samples per condition. ( С, D ) The graphs present quantification of [ 32 P]-labeled PAR after PARG treatment , in the absence of HPF1 (red curve) or in the presence of 60 nM HPF1 (orange curve), 240 nM HPF1 (yellow curve), or 960 nM HPF1 (green curve). The relative level of PAR hydrolysis in the presence of FUS was normalized to the amount of PAR synthesized by PARP1 ( C ) or PARP2 ( D ) in the absence of HPF1 (red curve) for 15 and 30 min, respectively.
