Samples
10 samples: 5 × ATR fl/fl, untreated, vs 5 × ATR fl/fl, iKO (4-OHT),Groups are read from the sample names, not from the paper. Check the list below.
Data you can get
A processed table (series matrix) and supplementary files from NCBI; the raw sequencing reads from ENA. Which of these hold counts depends on the study, so check the file list.

DNA damage response regulator ATR licenses PINK1-mediated mitophagyNucleic acids research · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Mitochondria are the central metabolic hub of the cell and their function is vital for cellular activities. Mitochondrial autophagy, or mitophagy, is a quality control mechanism to surveille the fitness and functionality of mitochondria and is therefore essential for life. Both mitochondrial dysfunction and malfunctional DNA damage response (DDR) are a major etiology for tissue impairment and aging.

ATR has been shown mainly as a nuclear factor to conduct DNA damage response under DNA replication stress. Paradoxically, the human Seckel syndrome caused by ATR mutations is characterized by premature aging and neuropathies, suggesting a role of ATR in non-replicating tissues. Here we report a previously unknown yet direct role of ATR at mitochondria. We find that HSP90 chaperones ATR and PINK1 to mitochondria, where ATR interacts with and thereby stabilizes PINK1 docking at the mitochondrial translocase TOM/TIM complex as well as with the electron transport chain (ETC). ATR mutant cells are refractory to mitophagy initiation, which can be reverted by an ectopic expression of full length, but not ATR-interaction mutant, PINK1. ATR deletion alters mitochondrial dynamics and OXPHOS functions producing aberrantly high reactive oxygen species (ROS) that attack cytosolic macromolecules prior to damaging nuclear DNA. Intriguingly, pharmacological intervention of mitochondrial metabolism to prevent ROS overproduction can mute ATR-mediated nuclear DDR. This study demonstrates that ATR is an integrated component of the mitochondrial membrane to ensure mitochondrial fitness as a primary physiological function, which, together with its essential DDR function, safeguards the cell fate under physiological and genotoxic conditions.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE244464_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1023223 and SRA study SRP464240. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
5 × ATR fl/fl, untreated, vs 5 × ATR fl/fl, iKO (4-OHT),

Supports a between-group comparison across 10 samples.

How we read this: 2 replicated groups read from 10 sample titles; they account for 10 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
