Synthetic Lethality Triggered by Combining Olaparib with BRCA2-Rad51 Disruptors [PDF]
In BRCA2-defective cells, poly(adenosine diphosphate [ADP]-ribose) polymerase inhibitors can trigger synthetic lethality, as two independent DNA-repairing mechanisms are simultaneously impaired. Here, we have pharmacologically induced synthetic lethality,

SSLPRED: PREDICTING SYNTHETIC SICKNESS LETHALITY [PDF]
Two genes in an organism have a Synthetic Sickness Lethality (SSL) interaction, if their joint deletion leads to a lower than expected fitness. Synthetic Gene Array (SGA) is a technique that helps in identifying SSL values for pairs of genes in a given set of genes.

SLKB: synthetic lethality knowledge base
Abstract Emerging CRISPR–Cas9 technology permits synthetic lethality (SL) screening of large number of gene pairs from gene combination double knockout (CDKO) experiments. However, the poor integration and annotation of CDKO SL data in current SL databases limit their utility, and diverse methods of calculating SL scores prohibit their ...

Breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) is a tumor suppressor gene, which is frequently mutated in breast and ovarian cancers. BRCA1 plays a key role in the homologous recombination directed DNA repair, allowing its deficiency to act as a therapeutic

Synthetic Lethal Vulnerabilities of Cancer
The great majority of targeted anticancer drugs inhibit mutated oncogenes that display increased activity. Yet many tumors do not contain such actionable aberrations, such as those harboring loss-of-function mutations. The notion of targeting synthetic lethal vulnerabilities in cancer cells has provided an alternative approach to exploiting more of ...

RAD52: Paradigm of Synthetic Lethality and New Developments
DNA double-strand breaks and inter-strand cross-links are the most harmful types of DNA damage that cause genomic instability that lead to cancer development.

Evolving DNA repair synthetic lethality targets in cancer [PDF]
DNA damage signaling response and repair (DDR) is a critical defense mechanism against genomic instability. Impaired DNA repair capacity is an important risk factor for cancer development.

Targeting synthetic lethal paralogs in cancer
Synthetic lethal interactions, where mutation of one gene renders cells sensitive to inhibition of another gene, can be exploited for the development of targeted therapeutics in cancer. Pairs of duplicate genes (paralogs) often share common functionality and hence are a potentially rich source of synthetic lethal interactions.
