A purified, isolated and cloned DNA sequence consisting essentially of a DNA sequence (SEQ ID No:1) partially encoding the gene, designated ATM, mutations in which cause ataxia-telangiectasia and a method for detecting carriers of the defective gene which causes ataxia-telangiectasia. The method includes isolating genetic material from a cell sample of a subject and the genetic material with molecular probes complementary to SEQ ID No:1 and point mutations, deletions or insertions thereof in order to detect carriers of the mutant gene.
