Members of the PIK (phosphatidylinositol kinase)-related kinase family are high molecular weight kinases involved in cell cycle progression, DNA recombination and detection of DNA damage. One member of the PI 3-/PI 4-kinase family is ATR (ataxia-telangiectasia- and Rad3-related), also known as FRP1 (for FRAP-related protein 1). ATR is most closely related to ATM, a protein kinase encoded by the gene mutated in ataxia telangiectasia. ATR is also closely related to three of the family members involved in checkpoint function: Mei-41 (Drosophila), Mec1p (S. cerevisiae) and Rad3 (S.pombe), and as such may be the functional human counterpart of these proteins. This kinase has been shown to phosphorylate checkpoint kinase CHK1, checkpoint proteins Rad17 and Rad9, as well as tumor suppressor protein BRCA1. In addition, ATR is essential for early embryonic development. The protein encoded by the human ATR gene localizes to intranuclear foci after DNA damage or inhibition of replication. ATR is phosphorylated at serine residues 428, 435 and 919 and threonine residue 1989.
