SLFN11 promotes CDT1 degradation by CUL4 in response to replicative DNA damage, while its absence leads to synthetic lethality with ATR/CHK1 inhibitors
3 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Significance Schlafen-11 (SLFN11) inactivation leads to chemoresistance of a broad range of DNA-damaging agents. We uncover an expanded Ataxia Telangiectasia- and Rad3-related (ATR)-mediated signaling network that overcomes chemoresistance by an unbiased genome-wide RNAi screen in SLFN11 -knockout cells and is validated with clinically developing ATR/CHK1 inhibitors. ATR inhibition induces CDT1 phosphorylation,...
