The coronavirus macrodomain is required to prevent PARP-mediated inhibition of virus replication and enhancement of IFN expression.
ADP-ribosylation is a ubiquitous post-translational addition of either monomers or polymers of ADP-ribose to target proteins by ADP-ribosyltransferases, usually by interferon-inducible diphtheria toxin-like enzymes known as PARPs. While several PARPs have known antiviral activities, these activities...
