Ataxia‐telangiectasia‐mutated dependent phosphorylation of Artemis in response to DNA damage
1 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
Artemis plays a crucial role in the hairpin-opening step of antigen receptor VDJ gene recombination in the presence of catalytic subunit of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PKcs). A defect in Artemis causes human radiosensitive-severe combined immunodeficiency. Cells from Artemis-deficient patients and mice display increased chromosomal instability, but the precise function of this factor...
