Disorders of Upper Limb Movements in Ataxia-Telangiectasia. [PDF]
Ataxia-telangiectasia is known for cerebellar degeneration, but clinical descriptions of abnormal tone, posture, and movements suggest involvement of the network between cerebellum and basal ganglia.

Radiation-induced Assembly of Rad51 and Rad52 Recombination Complex Requires ATM and c-Abl [PDF]
Cells from individuals with the recessive cancer-prone disorder ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) are hypersensitive to ionizing radiation (I-R). ATM (mutated in A-T) is a protein kinase whose activity is stimulated by I-R. c-Abl, a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase,

Ataxia-telangiectasia With Acute Rheumatic Fever: A Case Report [PDF]
Background: Ataxia-telangiectasia is a multi-organ disease. It is due to a mutation of the Exon No. 5 ataxia telangiectasia mutated gene (c.381delA: p.v128fls).

Identification of the first ATRIP-deficient patient and novel mutations in ATR define a clinical spectrum for ATR-ATRIP Seckel Syndrome [PDF]
A homozygous mutational change in the Ataxia-Telangiectasia and RAD3 related (ATR) gene was previously reported in two related families displaying Seckel Syndrome (SS). Here, we provide the first identification of a Seckel Syndrome patient with mutations

Mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced human ovarian aging: double strand DNA breaks and microvascular compromise [PDF]
The mechanism of chemotherapy-induced acceleration of ovarian aging is not fully understood. We used doxorubicin, a widely used cancer chemotherapeutic, in a variety of in vivo xenograft, and in vitro models to investigate the impact of chemotherapy ...

Investigations into the molecular effects of single nucleotide polymorphism [PDF]
Objectives: DNA sequences are very rich in short repeats and their pattern can be altered by point mutations. We wanted to investigate the effect of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) on the pattern of short DNA repeats and its biological consequences.

Activation of mammalian Chk1 during DNA replication arrest: a role for Chk1 in the intra-S phase checkpoint monitoring replication origin firing [PDF]
Checkpoints maintain order and fidelity in the cell cycle by blocking late-occurring events when earlier events are improperly executed. Here we describe evidence for the participation of Chk1 in an intra-S phase checkpoint in mammalian cells.

Ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder 1 (ATLD1) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder associated with early onset ataxia and oculomotor apraxia. The genetic determination of ATLD1 is a mutation in the MRE11 gene (meiotic recombination 11 gene), which causes
