Mutations in citron (CIT), leading to loss or inactivation of the kinase protein (CITK), cause primary microcephaly humans and rodents, associated with cytokinesis failure apoptosis neural progenitors. We show that CITK induces DNA damage accumulation chromosomal instability both mammals Drosophila. CITK-deficient cells display "spontaneous" damage, increased sensitivity ionizing radiation, defective recovery from radiation-induced lesions. In cells, double-strand breaks increase...
