ATR(ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3-related) is responsible for detecting ssDNA.

The threshold shifts when activity of the specied proteins involved in the pathway is blocked or reduced. Moreover with accurate dose of UVC and silenced or blocked Wip1, it may be possible to drive cancer cells to apoptotic pathway.},
