DNA in eukaryotic chromosomes is organized differently from prokaryotic DNA. It seems highly probable that mechanistic adjustments have been made in macromolecular DNA metabolism as a consequence of the chromatin structure of the eukaryotic chromosome (Igo-Kemenes et al. 1982)). This paper deals with an enzyme from eukaryotes, poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase, which may have a role in chromatin metabolism, and, in particular, we focus on the interaction between this enzyme and another enzyme that affects the structure of DNA, type-I DNA topoisomerase. The enzyme poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase, ubiquitously found in most eukaryotic nuclei, is inactive unless stimulated by a DNA strand break (Yamada et al. 1971; Yoshihara 1972; Benjamin and Gill 1980). In response to an activating DNA structure, the enzyme covalently attaches chains of a polyanionic polymer, poly (ADP-ribose), both to sites on the enzyme itself, as well as to a small class of exogenous protein acceptors (for review, see Hayaishi and Ueda 1982). The enzyme synthesizes poly (ADP-ribose) using NAD as a precursor: nNAD~[ADP-ribose],+ nNm, where Nm is nicotinamide.A biochemically related, but metabolically distinct, phenomenon is mono (ADP-ribosylation)(see Hayaishi and Ueda 1982). Poly (ADP-ribosylation) occurs in the nucleus and mono (ADP-ribosylation) appears to be mainly cytoplasmic. In cases so far investigated, poly (ADP-ribose) residues are linked to glutamate and mono (ADP-ribose) is linked to arginine (Fig. 1).
