DNA damage causes rapid accumulation of phosphoinositides for ATR signaling

Phosphoinositides are enriched in the nucleus and accumulate upon DNA damage but their role in responding to DNA damage is poorly defined. Here, the authors show that phosphoinositides rapidly accumulate at DNA damage sites and are required for ATR recruitment and subsequent Chk1 activation.
