ATM

Universal Cellular Machinery · DNA Damage Repair & Genomic Integrity

How do cells notice broken DNA and coordinate a response?

ATM encodes a kinase involved in recognizing DNA damage and controlling downstream repair and cell-cycle signals. The effects of a genetic finding depend on its type and inheritance, rather than on the gene's repair role alone.
