FANCD2 promotes mitotic rescue from transcription-mediated replication stress in SETX-deficient cancer cells

A synthetic lethal interaction is reported between the R-loop helicase Senataxin (SETX) and Fanconi anemia pathway proteins, with SETX deficiency increasing replication stress-induced chromosome fragility & activation of mitotic DNA synthesis.
