Abstract excerpt
The gene product mutated in ataxia telangiectasia, ATM, is a ubiquitously expressed 370 kDa protein kinase that is a key mediator of the cellular response to DNA damage [1]. ATM-deficient cells are radiosensitive and show impaired cell cycle arrest and increased chromosome breaks in response to ionizing radiation. ATM is a member of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)-related protein kinase superfamily,...
