Is there any ATM-defective cancer cell lines?

03 March 2018 0 9K Report

ATM is mutated in A-T patients. And A-T patients are always with a higher risk of cancer. But the status of ATM in the established cancer cell lines is seldom described. Dose anybody know which cancer cell line(s) is ATM-defective?
