CHK1 regulates the DNA damage-induced checkpoint involving an ATR- or ATM- dependent pathway. In this paper, we focused on the autophosphorylation of Ser296, one of the DNA damage-induced phosphorylation sites. First, we demonstrated that the Ser296 autophosphorylation of CHK1 is mainly regulated by an intramolecular mechanism in response to DNA damage.
