Complex synthetic lethality in cancer

Nature Genetics, 2023
The concept of synthetic lethality has been widely applied to identify therapeutic targets in cancer, with varying degrees of success. The standard approach normally involves identifying genetic interactions between two genes, a driver and a target. In reality, however, most cancer synthetic lethal effects are likely complex and also polygenic, being ...

Synthetic lethality and cancer

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2017
A synthetic lethal interaction occurs between two genes when the perturbation of either gene alone is viable but the perturbation of both genes simultaneously results in the loss of viability. Key to exploiting synthetic lethality in cancer treatment are the identification and the mechanistic characterization of robust synthetic lethal genetic ...

Discovery of 4-Hydroxyquinazoline Derivatives as Small Molecular BET/PARP1 Inhibitors That Induce Defective Homologous Recombination and Lead to Synthetic Lethality for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Therapy.

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2022
The effective potency and resistance of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors limit their application. Here, we exploit a new paradigm that mimics the effects of breast cancer susceptibility genes (BRCA) mutations to trigger the possibility of ...

Synthetic Lethal Screen

2005
The synthetic lethal screen is a method of isolating novel mutants whose survival is dependent on a gene of interest. Combining the colony-color assay with a synthetic lethal screen offers a means to visually detect a mutant that depends on a plasmid for survival. Screening for synthetic lethals can be achieved in four steps.

Searching for synthetic lethality in cancer

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2011
The incentive to develop personalised therapy for cancer treatment is driven by the premise that it will increase therapeutic efficacy and reduce toxicity. Understanding the underlying cellular and molecular basis of the disease has been extremely important in the design of these novel therapies; however, identifying new drug targets for personalised ...

Synthetic dosage lethality

2002
Publisher Summary Identification of proteins that interact to perform a common function is crucial to understanding the mechanisms of cellular processes. Both genetic and biochemical methods are used to uncover an interaction between two proteins. In yeast, many genetic screens have been developed, which begin with the mutation of a gene of interest ...

Metabolic switch regulates lineage plasticity and induces synthetic lethality in triple-negative breast cancer.

Cell Metabolism
Metabolic reprogramming is key for cancer development, yet the mechanism that sustains triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell growth despite deficient pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) and tumor glycolysis remains to be determined.
