Identifying collateral and synthetic lethal vulnerabilities within the DNA-damage response

Identifying collateral and synthetic lethal vulnerabilities within the DNA-damage response

Background: A pair of genes is defined as synthetically lethal if defects on both cause the death of the cell but a defect in only one of the two is compatible with cell viability. Ideally, if A and B are two synthetic lethal genes, inhibiting B should kill cancer cells with a defect on A, and shoul...
