Poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 and 2 (PARP1 and PARP2) are key enzymes in the DNA damage response. Four different inhibitors (PARPi) are currently in the clinic for treatment of ovarian and breast cancer. Recently, histone PARylation Factor 1 (HPF1) has been shown to play an essential role in the PARP1- and PARP2-dependent poly-(ADP-ribosylation) (PARylation) of histones, by forming a complex with both enzymes and altering their catalytic properties. Given the proximity of HPF1 to the inhibitor binding site both PARPs, we hypothesized that HPF1 may modulate the affinity of inhibitors toward PARP1 and/or PARP2. Here we demonstrate that HPF1 significantly increases the affinity for a PARP1 – DNA complex of some PARPi (i.e., olaparib), but not others (i.e., veliparib). This effect of HPF1 on the binding affinity of Olaparib also holds true for the more physiologically relevant PARP1 – nucleosome complex but does not extend to PARP2. Our results have important implications for the interpretation of PARP inhibition by current PARPi as well as for the design and analysis of the next generation of clinically relevant PARP inhibitors.
