Sensitive to histone deacetylase inhibitors valproic acid (VPA) and

Rhabdomyosarcoma cells with elevated levels of hTdp1 were more Both HT1080 cells overexpressing hTDP1 and One gene was the histone deacetylase RPD3, for which thereĪre known inhibitors. Genes that when deleted specifically kill cells with high levels of Using SDL screens in yeast, we identified a set of Genetic vulnerability that could be leveraged for selective killing ofĬancer cells through targeting of an unlinked synthetic dosag e lethal (SDL) partner.

Overexpression of dCIN genes represents a Rhabdomyosarcoma lines with elevated human Tdp1 levelsĪlso exhibit CIN that can be partially rescued by siRNA-mediated TATA-box binding factor, cause CIN when overexpressed in humanĬells. Tyrosyl-DNA-phosphdiesterase, and TAF12, an RNA polymerase II Reveals human orthologs known to be recurrently overexpressedĪnd/or amplified in tumors. Genome-wide screens in the budding yeast for yeast genes thatĬause CIN when overexpressed, a phenotype we refer to as dosageĬIN (dCIN), and identified 245 dCIN genes. Overexpression on chromosome instability (CIN), we performed Somatic copy number amplification and gene overexpression areĬommon features of many cancers.
