TRPM2 is the second member of the transient receptor potential melastatin-related (TRPM) family of cation channels. The protein is widely expressed including in the brain, immune system, endocrine cells, and endothelia. It embodies both ion channel functionality and enzymatic ADP-ribose (ADPr) hydrolase activity. TRPM2 is a Ca(2+)-permeable nonselective cation channel embedded in the plasma membrane and/or lysosomal compartments that is primarily activated in a synergistic fashion by intracellular ADP-ribose (ADPr) and Ca(2+). It is also activated by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/NOS) and enhanced by additional factors, such as cyclic ADPr and NAADP, while inhibited by permeating protons (acidic pH) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP). Activation of TRPM2 leads to increases in intracellular Ca(2+) levels, which can serve signaling roles in inflammatory and secretory cells through release of vesicular mediators (e.g., cytokines, neurotransmitters, insulin) and in extreme cases can induce apoptotic and necrotic cell death under oxidative stress.

Rationale: ADP-ribosylation is a posttranslational modification whose higher-energy collisional dissociation (HCD) products are dominated by complete or partial modification losses, complicating peptide sequencing and acceptor site localization efforts. We tested whether in-source collision-induced dissociation (CID) performed on a quadrupole-Orbitrap could convert ADPr to the smaller phosphoribose-HO derivative to facilitate HCD-dependent peptide sequencing.
Methods: ADP-ribosyl (ADPr) peptides derived from the human macrophage-like cell line THP-1 were analyzed on a quadrupole-Orbitrap.

Ubiquitination and ADP-ribosylation are two types of post-translational modification (PTM) involved in regulating various cellular activities. In a striking example of direct interplay between ubiquitination and ADP-ribosylation, the bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila uses its SidE family of secreted effectors to catalyze an NAD+-dependent phosphoribosyl ubiquitination of host substrates in a process involving the intermediary formation of ADP-ribosylated ubiquitin (ADPR-Ub). This noncanonical ubiquitination pathway is finely regulated by multiple Legionella effectors to ensure a balanced host subjugation.

Article Synopsis
- ADP-ribosylation is a process where ADP-ribose units are transferred from NAD+ to proteins, and its dysregulation is linked to neurodegenerative diseases.
- A study used genetic testing on two siblings suffering from developmental issues, seizures, and muscle weakness, identifying a new variant in the ADPRS gene that contributes to their diagnosis of childhood-onset neurodegeneration with stress-induced ataxia and seizures (CONDSIAS).
- The identified genetic variant affects the protein ARH3, leading to its instability, improper localization, and accumulation of harmful compounds, helping to explain the disease's mechanisms and the importance of ARH3 in maintaining nervous system health.
