Abstract:
Abstract We have devised a genetic screen, termed synthetic dosage lethality, in which a cloned “reference” gene is inducibly overexpressed in a set of mutant strains carrying potential “target” mutations. To test the specificity of the method, two reference genes, CTF13, encoding a centromere binding protein, and ORC6, encoding a subunit of the origin of replication binding complex, were overexpressed in a large collection of mutants defective in either chromosome segregation or replication. CTF13 overexpression caused synthetic dosage lethality in combination with ctf14-42 (cbf2, ndc10), ctf

Abstract:
Cancer is an evolutionary disease with multiple genetic alterations, accumulated due to chromosomal instability and/or aneuploidy and it sometimes acquires drug-resistant phenotype also. Whole genome sequencing and mutational analysis helped in understanding the differences among persons for predisposition of a disease and its treatment non-responsiveness. Thus, molecular targeted therapies came into existence. Among them, the concept of synthetic lethality have enthralled great attention as it is a pragmatic approach towards exploiting cancer cell specific mutations to specifically kill cance

Abstract:
Paralogs often exhibit functional redundancy, allowing them to effectively compensate for each other’s loss. However, this buffering mechanism is frequently disrupted in cancer, exposing unique paralog-specific vulnerabilities. Here, we identify a selective dependency on the splicing factor TRA2A. We find that TRA2A and its paralog TRA2B are synthetic lethal partners that function as widespread and largely redundant activators of both alternative and constitutive splicing. While loss of TRA2A alone is typically neutral due to compensation by TRA2B, we discover that a subset of cancer cell line

Abstract:
Abstract Paralogs are prevalent in the human genome and are considered a rich source of synthetic lethality due to functional redundancy. For a cancer cell carrying a gene with Loss-Of-Function (LOF) mutation, inactivation of its paralog using gene editing can induce a selective decrease in viability, leaving normal cells that do not harbor the mutation unharmed. Previous studies have exploited this vulnerability of cancer genomes. However, the cancer-specificity of such synthetic lethality limits its application across different cancer types. Furthermore, the role of functional redundancy whi

Synthetic dosage lethality (SDL) denotes a genetic interaction between two genes whereby the underexpression of gene A combined with the overexpression of gene B is lethal.

As experimental genome-wide SDL screens are still scarce, here we introduce a network-level computational modeling framework that quantitatively predicts human SDLs in metabolism.

Abstract:
Abstract Synthetic lethal interactions (SLIs) based on genomic alterations in cancer have been therapeutically explored. We investigated the SLI space as a function of differential RNA expression in cancer and normal tissue. Computational analyses of functional genomic and gene expression resources uncovered a cancer-specific SLI between the paralogs cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol synthase 1 (CDS1) and CDS2. The essentiality of CDS2 for cell survival is observed for mesenchymal-like cancers, which have low or absent CDS1 expression and account for roughly half of all cancers. Mechanistica

This paper presents a patient with a novel Ig-like-III domain fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR2) alteration (W290_P307&gt;C) along with CDKN2A/B alterations and a cadherin 1 (CDH1) alteration. Initial responsiveness to pazopanib monotherapy was encouraging, yet progression occurred after 7.5 months. Following progression, the molecular tumor board recommended a combination therapy approach comprising pazopanib, crizotinib, and palbociclib to target all of the changed pathways at the same time. Pazopanib was chosen to specifically target the FGFR2 alteration, while crizotinib was selecte

Abstract:
Abstract Background Colony growth on solid media is a simple and effective measure for high-throughput genomic experiments such as yeast two-hybrid, synthetic dosage lethality and Synthetic Physical Interaction screens. The development of robotic pinning tools has facilitated the experimental design of these assays, and different imaging software can be used to automatically measure colony sizes on plates. However, comparison to control plates and statistical data analysis is often laborious and pinning issues or plate specific growth effects can lead to the detection of false-positive growth

Abstract:
Abstract Mislocalization of the centromeric histone H3 variant (Cse4 in budding yeast, CID in flies, CENP-A in humans) to noncentromeric regions contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN) in yeast, fly, and human cells. Overexpression and mislocalization of CENP-A have been observed in cancers, however, the mechanisms that facilitate the mislocalization of overexpressed CENP-A have not been fully explored. Defects in proteolysis of overexpressed Cse4 (GALCSE4) lead to its mislocalization and synthetic dosage lethality (SDL) in mutants for E3 ubiquitin ligases (Psh1, Slx5, SCFMet30, and SCFCd

Abstract:
AbstractOverexpression of mitotic arrest deficiency 2 (MAD2/MAD2L1), a pivotal component of the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), resulted in many types of cancer. Here we show that the depletion of tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101), causes synthetic dosage lethality (SDL) in MAD2-overexpressing cells, and we term this cell death MAD2-overexpressing interphase cell death (MOID). The induction of MOID depends on PML and DAXX mediating mitochondrial AIFM1-release. MAD2, TSG101, and AIF-PML-DAXX axis regulate mitochondria, PML nuclear bodies (NBs), and autophagy with close inter-dependent p

Abstract:
Opioids are important tools for pain management, but abuse can result in serious health complications. Of these complications, respiratory depression that leads to brain hypoxia is the most dangerous, resulting in coma and death. Although all opioids at large doses induce brain hypoxia, danger is magnified with synthetic opioids such as fentanyl and structurally similar analogs. These drugs are highly potent, act rapidly, and are often not effectively treated by naloxone, the standard of care for opioid-induced respiratory depression. The goal of this review paper is to present and discuss bra

Dystonias are a group of disorders characterized by abnormal involuntary contracting of musculature that causes twisting and turning of a patient's body. Though the etiology of each type of dystonia varies, many forms are treated with anticholinergic medications ranging from the use of botulinum toxin to muscarinic receptor antagonists. Although the efficacy of cholinergic treatments is limited by side effects, mechanistic evidence for cholinergic dysfunction along with efficacy of current cholinergic treatments encouraged us to pursue the development of inhibitors of the high affinity choline
