PARP — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FgPARP (FGRAMPH1_01G19089) on chromosome 3 of Fusarium graminearum PH-1 encodes a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family protein, containing ARTD/PARP, WGR, BRCT, and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase catalytic and regulatory domains. The gene is associated with the biological process of translational frameshifting. Studies of related genes in other species link the PARP family to DNA damage repair and stress responses, though these functions are not yet established for FgPARP itself.
