Collab🚨: CRI's McBrayer Lab contributed to a discovery published in @ScienceMagazine from @MangusoLab & Bardeesy Lab at @MGHCancerCenter that defines a new #cancer-causing mechanism associated with IDH1 mutations (the most commonly mutated metabolic gene across cancers). From…

Online Now: De novo pyrimidine synthesis is a targetable vulnerability in IDH mutant glioma dlvr.it/SWsG4m


Milan Savani Reposted

New research in @Cancer_Cell from the McBrayer lab identified the de novo pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis pathway as a targetable vulnerability in IDH1 mutant brain tumors. These findings establish the basis of a clinical trial expected to begin next year. cri.utsw.edu/researchers-id…

Scientists in the McBrayer lab developed a new method to create surgically-explanted organoids from patients with #BrainCancer, resolving a long-standing roadblock to studying lower-grade brain tumors in the lab. Learn about the study in Neuro-Oncology. ⤵️ bit.ly/3lBdNNN

new preprint just dropped 👀 a thread:

Cloaked in mystery for decades, the RNA capping mechanism of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is unveiled. Congrats to @UTSWNews colleague V.Tagliabracci & lead authors @ginajpark & A.Osinski for this amazing discovery. @HHMINEWS biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
