Rampant transcription replication conflict creates therapeutic vulnerability in extrachromosomal DNA containing cancers
2024-03-29
Abstract excerpt
Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) presents a major challenge for precision medicine, contributing to poor survival for patients with oncogene-amplified tumours. EcDNA renders tumours resistant to targeted treatments by facilitating massive transcription of oncogenes and rapid genome evolution. At present, there are no ecDNA- specific treatments. Here we show that enhancing transcription replication conflict enables tar...
