Endogenous topoisomerase II-mediated DNA breaks drive thymic cancer predisposition linked to ATM deficiency
The ATM kinase is a key regulator of the DNA damage response to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and its homozygous loss in patients predisposes to lymphoid malignancies. Here, the authors develop a Tdp2 −/− Atm −/− double-deficient mouse model to uncover topoisomerase II-induced DSBs as significant driv...

Sumario: | The ATM kinase is a key regulator of the DNA damage response to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and its homozygous loss in patients predisposes to lymphoid malignancies. Here, the authors develop a Tdp2 −/− Atm −/− double-deficient mouse model to uncover topoisomerase II-induced DSBs as significant drivers of the genomic rearrangements that underpin these tumours. |
