Background: ATM is a Phosphatidylinositol-3-Kinase–Related Kinase(PIKKs), belonging to a family of serine/threonine kinases that also contains DNA-Dependent Protein Kinase (DNA-PK), which plays a role in the DNA Double-Strand Break (DSB) repair pathway of Non-Homologous End Joining (NHEJ), and Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR), a key autophagy regulator. ATM recognizes and amplifies the signal generated by double strand break, upon activation, CHK2 are released from chromatin and halt cell cycle progression to allow repair. The aim was to study the mutation of Ataxia telangiectasia gene and Chek2 gene in a malignant and benign breast lesion. There is a hitch in the comprehension of the concept of carcinogenesis thus, changes that occur to genes which cause cells to malfunction, causing them to grow and divide when they should not is not well understood.
