Abstract excerpt
Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) is essential for rapid induction of cellular responses to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). In this study, we mapped a nuclear localization signal (NLS), 385KRKK388, within the amino terminus of ATM and demonstrate its recognition by the conventional nuclear import receptor, the importin alpha1/beta1 heterodimer. Although mutation of this NLS resulted in green fluorescent...
