While ATM, the protein defective in the human genetic disorder ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T), is primarily activated as a preexisting protein by radiation, there is also evidence that expression of the protein can be regulated at the transcriptional level. Activation of the ATM promoter by ionizing radiation has been reported only in quiescent cells in culture. To investigate how the Atm promoter is regulated in vivo, we generated transgenic mice that express the luciferase reporter gene under the control of the murine Atm promoter. Using a biophotonic imaging system luciferase activity was monitored in vivo. Strong promoter activity was detected throughout the transgenic animals with particularly high signals from the thymus, abdominal region, and reproductive organs. This activity further increased in response to both ionizing radiation and heat stress in a time dependent manner. Luciferase activity, measured in vitro in extracts from different tissues, showed highest activities in testes, ovaries, and cerebellum. Subjecting these mice to a single dose of 4 Gy total body radiation led to a time‐dependent activation of the promoter with the strongest response observed in the peritoneal membrane, skin, and spleen. For most tissues tested, maximal promoter activity was reached 8 hr after radiation. The observed changes in promoter activity largely correlated with levels and activity of Atm protein in tissue extracts. These results demonstrate that, in addition to activation by autophosphorylation, Atm can also be regulated in vivo at the transcriptional level possibly ensuring a more sustained response to radiation and other stimuli. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
