Abstract excerpt
Ataxia telangiectasia (AT) is an autosomal recessive disease of childhood with several phenotypic characteristics. One of the hallmarks of this syndrome is its hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation, which is believed to be due to defects in DNA repair/processing. In addition to radio-resistant D...
