Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1; EC 2.4.2.30) is an abundant nuclear enzyme, activated by DNA strand breaks to attach up to 200 ADP-ribose groups to nuclear proteins. As retroviral infection requires integrase-catalyzed DNA strand breaks, we examined infection of pseudotyped HIV type I in fibroblasts from mice with a targeted deletion of PARP-1. Viral infection is almost totally abolished in PARP-1 knockout fibroblasts. This protection from infection reflects prevention of viral integration into the host genome. These findings suggest a potential for PARP inhibitors in therapy of HIV type I infection.
