Genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies PKMYT1 inhibition as a synthetic lethal vulnerability in IDH1-mutant glioma.
Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) are frequently observed in several aggressive malignancies, including gliomas, chondrosarcomas, and acute myeloid leukemia. Mutant IDH enzymes exhibit neomorphic activity that produces the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG), leading to widespread DNA and histone hyp...
