Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a key target for treatment of cancer-related diseases. Detailed structural changes DBD in PARP1 during the binding process with DNA were investigated and the dynamic conformational differences of DBD caused by zinc ions were revealed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
