TEMPUS GENE LIBRARY

This gene overview is brought to you as part of Tempus’ goal to inform providers about our genomic testing panels and the genes included in our offerings. Through our robust de-identified database of clinical information coupled with molecular testing results, we are capable of providing unique insights into these gene alterations. Many of the gene alterations reported on our somatic and germline panels are often key inclusion criteria for clinical trials.

ATM Gene

A-T Mutated

The ATM gene is a member of the PI3/PI4-kinase gene family. The ATM gene functions as a cell cycle checkpoint kinase, controlling the rate of cell growth and division. Additionally, it assists in the repair of damaged DNA. Loss of function mutations, copy number loss, and underexpression of ATM are associated with cancer progression.
