abstract：:ATM is a member of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PIK)-like kinases, some of which are active in regulating DNA damage-induced mitotic cell-cycle checkpoints. ATM also plays a role in meiosis. Spermatogenesis in Atm-/- male mice is disrupted, with chromosome fragmentation leading to meiotic arrest; in human patien...
