pubmed-article:2516473 | pubmed:abstractText | Considering the eventuality of an interaction between the two post-translational modifications, phosphorylation and ADP-ribosylation, we investigated the possibility of phosphorylation of the mRNP polyADPR polymerase by a protein kinase C associated to these particles. We demonstrated that cytoplasmic poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase associated with ribonucleoprotein particles containing silent mRNA is phosphorylated by a specifically activated endogenous protein kinase C which in turn induces an inhibition of the polymerase activity. In the absence of protein kinase C activators the mRNP polyADPR-P is also phosphorylated but without changes of its enzymatic activity. | lld:pubmed |
