Popis: There are no robust methods for systematically identifying mutation-specific synthetic lethal (SL) partners in cancer. Here, the authors develop a computational algorithm that uses pan-cancer data to detect mutation-andcancer-specific SL partners and they validate a novel SL interaction between mutant IDH and loss of ACACA in leukaemia.
