Description

TIPARP (TCDD Inducible Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase), also known as PARP7, is a member of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family. It functions as a mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that modifies target proteins, playing roles in DNA damage repair, transcriptional regulation, and cellular responses to environmental toxins such as TCDD (2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin). TIPARP is involved in the negative regulation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) signaling pathway and has been implicated in cancer, immune regulation, and metabolic processes.

Protein Summary

TIPARP encodes a 657-amino acid protein with a central PARP catalytic domain and a zinc-finger domain. It catalyzes mono-ADP-ribosylation of target proteins, including histones and transcription factors, thereby modulating chromatin structure and gene expression. The protein is induced by TCDD and other xenobiotics via the AHR pathway and acts in a negative feedback loop to regulate AHR activity. TIPARP is localized to the nucleus and is involved in DNA damage repair, cellular stress responses, and tumorigenesis.
