    GlossaryAtaxia Telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein

    enzyme ATR detects DNA damage and activates repair mechanisms

    Ataxia Telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein, commonly known as ATR, is a crucial enzyme involved in the cellular response to DNA damage. It helps maintain genomic stability by detecting DNA damage and activating repair pathways, thus preventing mutations that could lead to diseases like cancer.
