Allosteric regulation is achieved by regulatory domains that sense stimuli and induce conformational changes in the functional domain that performs the catalytic activity of the enzyme. Poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs) are modular enzymes present across all domains of life including Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. A typical domain architecture of PARPs consists of a conserved C-terminal catalytic domain (CAT) associated with multiple distinct N-terminal sensory and/or regulatory domains which together serve as regulatory region (REG). In this study, we investigated whether REG of different orthologs and paralogs of PARPs from mammals (hPARP1 and hPARP2), plants (atPARP2), and bacteria (haPARP) can assemble with CAT of each other to generate functional chimeric assemblies. We have employed qualitative and quantitative enzyme activity assays along with binding studies to examine these in vitro chimeric assemblies. The
