Summary

PARP4 (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family member 4, HGNC:271) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 13q12.12, encoding Protein mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase PARP4 (Q9UKK3). Mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that mediates mono-ADP-ribosylation of target proteins.

This gene encodes poly(ADP-ribosyl)transferase-like 1 protein, which is capable of catalyzing a poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation reaction. This protein has a catalytic domain which is homologous to that of poly (ADP-ribosyl) transferase, but lacks an N-terminal DNA binding domain which activates the C-terminal catalytic domain of poly (ADP-ribosyl) transferase. Since this protein is not capable of binding DNA directly, its transferase activity may be activated by other factors such as protein-protein interaction mediated by the extensive carboxyl terminus.
