PPM1D mutations silence NAPRT gene expression and confer NAMPT inhibitor sensitivity in glioma

Mutations in the Protein Phosphatase PPM1D are oncogenic in certain cancers including diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). Here, the authors show that PPM1D mutations in DIPG induce the silencing of the nicotinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase gene and display synthetic lethality with nicotinami...
