In response to perturbed DNA replication, ATR (ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related) kinase is activated to initiate the checkpoint signaling necessary for maintaining genome integrity and cell survival. To better understand the signaling mechanism, we carried out a large-scale genetic screen in fission yeast looking for mutants with enhanced sensitivity to hydroxyurea.
