Abstract

ATM and rad3-related protein kinase (ATR), a member of the phosphoinositide kinase-like protein kinase family, plays a critical role in cellular responses to DNA structural abnormalities in conjunction with its interacting protein, ATRIP. Here, we show that the amino-terminal portion of ATRIP is relocalized to DNA damage-induced nuclear foci in an RPA-dependent manner, despite its lack of ability to associate with ATR. In addition, ATR-free ATRIP protein can be recruited to the nuclear foci. Our results suggest that the N-terminal domain of the ATRIP protein contributes to the cell cycle checkpoint by regulating the intranuclear localization of ATR.
