JULY 27, 2019, NEW YORK – A Ludwig Cancer Research study has identified a new instance in which the simultaneous mutation of two nonessential genes-neither of which is on its own vital to cell survival-can cause cancer cell death.
Led by Ludwig San Diego Member Richard Kolodner and published in the current Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the study also demonstrates that this deadly synergy, or “synthetic lethality,” can be replicated by a drug-like molecule and could be exploit…
