摘要: ATM, the gene mutated in ataxia telangiectasia, is related to a family of large phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase domain-containing protein kinases involved cell cycle control and DNA repair. To define physiological roles ATM higher vertebrate cells, we created an ATM-deficient DT40 line, which, despite lack p53 expression, displays multiple p53-independent defects checkpoint maintenance chromosomal DNA. -/- cells also show mild impairment homologous recombination repair, which independent its defects. These deficient clones thus provide useful model system for analyzing functions cellular response double-strand break. Furthermore, observe various abnormalities noxious stress such as oxidative indicating that plays important not only damage but homeostasis damage.
