“…(C) Superpositions of the 33 PARP1 CAT domain structures from PDB indicate that the D-loop residue, Tyr889, can assume multiple side-chain conformations. Binding of a rigid stereospecific inhibitor (e.g., talazoparib) may sterically restrict the side-chain flexibility (PDB IDs: 4PJT, 4GV7, 4HHY, 4HHZ, 4L6S, 4DQY, 3GN7, 3L3L, 3L3M, 3GJW, 2RD6, 1WOK, 1UK0, and 1UK1) Kinoshita et al, 2004;Iwashita et al, 2005;Miyashiro et al, 2009;Gandhi et al, 2010;Penning et al, 2010;Langelier et al, 2012;Gangloff et al, 2013;Lindgren et al, 2013;Ye et al, 2013;Aoyagi-Scharber et al, 2014). (Ruf et al, 1998) and well characterized as a sequence-diverse element in the PARP superfamily Papeo et al, 2013;Steffen et al, 2013), may also contribute to the protein dynamics of the CAT domain that are implicated in the putative inhibitor-induced reverse-allosteric signaling.…”
