Full name: poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase family, member 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: 5830444G22Rik; ARTD1; Adprp; Adprt1; PARP; PPOL; msPARP; parp-1; sPARP-1

Summary: Enables NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase activity; chromatin binding activity; and protein ADP-ribosylase activity. Involved in negative regulation of telomere maintenance via telomere lengthening; positive regulation of single strand break repair; and voluntary musculoskeletal movement. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including DNA metabolic process; behavioral response to cocaine; and protein poly-ADP-ribosylation. Located in cytoplasm; nucleolus; and nucleoplasm. Part of protein-containing complex. Is expressed in several structures, including Peyer's patch; brain; gut; immune system; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including arthritis; bacterial meningitis; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); stomach carcinoma; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PARP1 (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
