摘要: The p53 tumor suppressor protein is activated and phosphorylated on serine-15 in response to various DNA damaging agents. gene product mutated ataxia telangiectasia, ATM, acts upstream of a signal transduction pathway initiated by ionizing radiation. Immunoprecipitated ATM had intrinsic kinase activity manganese-dependent manner. Ionizing radiation, but not ultraviolet rapidly enhanced this p53-directed endogenous ATM. These observations, along with the fact that phosphorylation radiation reduced telangiectasia cells, suggest phosphorylates vivo.
