SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for TEL1

TEL1 was originally identified in a mutant screen to find genes involved in maintaining telomere length (6). It was later shown that Tel1p is a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase homolog and is related to the human ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated) gene (7, 8). However, despite its similarity to phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases, Tel1p has been shown to have protein kinase activity (9). Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) is an autosomal recessive disorder that causes cerebellar ataxia, telangiectases, immune defects, and a predisposition to cancer; AT cells are hypersensitive to killing by ionizing radiation (OMIM:607585). Tel1p is a member of the PIK-related kinase family that includes Mec1p, Tor1p, and Tor2p and is involved in DNA repair, recombination, and regulation of the cell cycle (10, 11).
