Statements
"Atm/atr are generally sensors of dna damage, but, together with the checkpoint kinases chk1 and chk2, they also function as response effectors by phosphorylation of key substrates, such as p53, brca1, and nbs1. In particular, p53 phosphorylation leads to protein accumulation and activation, which in turn promotes cell-cycle arrest or apoptosis."
