01

Overview

ADP-ribosyltransferase 5 (ART5) is a member of the arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase family, catalyzing the transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD+ onto arginine residues in target proteins, thereby regulating their function. Unlike membrane-anchored family members ART1 and ART2, ART5 is secreted and exhibits unique catalytic properties, such as dual catalytic activity dependent on NAD+ concentration and auto-regulatory modification through auto-ADP-ribosylation. These features contribute to ART5’s distinct biology and tissue specificity. ART5 has been implicated in cell signaling and protein regulation and has emerging relevance as a biomarker in cancer research.

Mechanism of action

Enzyme inhibition by analogs of NAD+ or arginine; Regulation through auto-ADP-ribosylation

03

Biological functions

Protein ADP-ribosylation (post-translational modification)Regulation of protein functionCell signalingPossible involvement in cell communication
04

Disease associations

Cancer (reported in colorectal cancer gene signatures and in processes related to castration-resistant prostate cancer)Other (potential biomarker in disease)
05

Safety considerations

None specifically reported in public sources for ART5. General challenges of enzyme inhibition include off-target effects and disruption of NAD+-dependent processes.
06

Interacting drugs

No approved drugs directly targeting ART5 are known. Small molecule arginine analogs (e.g. agmatine, meta-iodobenzylguanidine) can inhibit ADP-ribosylation, but these are not specific clinical drugs for ART5
07

Biomarkers

Transcript levels of ART5 have been included in prognostic gene signatures for colorectal cancer
