Werner Syndrome Helicase Is Required for the Survival of Cancer Cells with Microsatellite Instability
Summary: Werner syndrome protein (WRN) is a RecQ enzyme involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. Germline loss-of-function mutations in WRN led to premature aging and predisposition to cancer. We evaluated synthetic lethal (SL) interactions between WRN and another human RecQ helicase, BLM, w...
