title: A turn-on split-luciferase sensor for the direct detection of poly(ADP-ribose) as a marker for DNA repair and cell death.
abstract: Designed sensors comprising split-firefly luciferase conjugated to tandem poly(ADP-ribose) binding domains allow for the direct solution phase detection of picogram quantities of PAR and for monitoring temporal changes in poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation events in mammalian cells.
