Description

PARP14 (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family member 14) encodes a mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD+ to target proteins. It is involved in DNA damage repair, transcriptional regulation, and immune signaling. PARP14 promotes cell survival under stress and has been implicated in cancer progression, particularly in multiple myeloma, breast cancer, and lymphoma. It also plays a role in macrophage polarization and antiviral responses.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.1234C>T (p.Arg412Trp) Missense 0.02% (gnomAD) Unknown functional impact
c.2567A>G (p.Gln856Arg) Missense 0.01% (gnomAD) Reported in COSMIC; potential gain-of-function
c.3456_3457insA (p.Glu1153fs) Frameshift Rare Loss-of-function predicted
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift and nonsense mutations (e.g., p.Glu1153fs) are predicted to truncate the catalytic domain, impairing ADP-ribosyltransferase activity.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Missense variants such as p.Gln856Arg may enhance catalytic activity or substrate interaction, though functional validation is limited.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No well-characterized dominant-negative mutations reported for PARP14.

Protein Summary

PARP14 is a 1801-amino-acid mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase containing a WWE domain, a macrodomain, and a C-terminal catalytic PARP domain. It localizes to both nucleus and cytoplasm, where it modifies target proteins (e.g., STAT1, STAT6, BCL6) to regulate transcription, DNA repair, and immune responses. Overexpression in multiple cancers correlates with poor prognosis and therapy resistance.
