Ataxia-capillary dilation mutation (ATM) is a member of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) -3-kinase gene family, which is activated after binding to DNA double-stranded breaks (DSB). When activated, it phosphorylates and activates several proteins involved in DNA repair, such as the Nijmegen Break Syndrome protein (Nbs-1).
Structurally, ATM contains five domains, a HEAT repeat domain, a FRAP-ATM-TRRAP (FAT) domain, a kinase domain (KD), a PIKK regulatory domain (PRD), and a FAT-C terminal (FATC) domain. HEAT repeats bind directly to the C-terminus of NBS1. The FAT domain interacts with the kinase domain of ATM to stabilize the C-terminal region of ATM itself. The KD domain restores kinase activity, while the PRD and FATC domains regulate kinase activity.
The function of ATM is to sense the DNA breaks induced during the S phase and coordinate the cellular response in response to damage. Its genetic mutation results in a rare autologous hereditary disorder, ataxia capillary dilation (AT), manifested by increased cancer susceptibility, including 20% to 30% lifetime lymph, stomach, breast, central nervous system risk, skin, and other cancers. Besides, numerous studies have demonstrated ATM plays an important role in signaling related to inducing aging and regulating the state of aging.
Figure 1: ATM function in repair of double-stranded DNA breaks (Michael Choi. 2016).
Studies have shown that ATM inhibitors (ATMi) can act like human EGFR cells in human tumor cells, thereby inhibiting the growth of tumor cells. Tumor cells are sensitive to IR, suggesting that ATMi as an alternative method may have anti-cancer effects on EGFRi inhibiting tumor cells and promote radiation therapy. Anyway, ATM provides possibilities for future therapeutic targets in the fields of aging and cancer.
