ATM phosphorylates γH2AX, thereby initiating a series of chromatin modifications that are recognized by DNA repair protein complexes. Each DNA repair complex proteins contains binding domain with specificity for a particular modification. This enables stepwise assembly of DNA repair protein complexes over large stretches of chromatin flanking DSBs.
