title: A derivative of an ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) cell line with normal radiosensitivity but A-T-like inhibition of DNA synthesis.
abstract: Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) cells are hypersensitive to the lethal effects of ionizing radiation and fail to inhibit DNA synthesis following radiation exposure. A cell line derived from an A-T line following DNA-mediated gene transfer has normal radiation sensitivity, but the kinetics of DNA synthesis after gamma-irradiation are similar to those of A-T cells.
