Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a posttranslational modification, which is involved in many cellular functions, including DNA repair and maintenance of genomic stability, and has also been implicated in cellular and organismal ageing. We have previously reported that maximum poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation capacity in mononuclear blood cells is correlated with mammalian life span. Here we show that the difference between a long-lived and a short-lived species tested (i.e. man and rat) is directly mirrored by the enzymatic parameters of recombinant poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), i.e. substrate affinity and reaction velocity. In addition, we have characterized two human PARP-1 alleles and assign their activity difference to their respective initial velocity and not substrate affinity.
