Cancer cells have a remarkable ability to survive treatments that damage their DNA. One reason is that they rely on sophisticated repair systems that can fix genetic damage that would otherwise kill them. Among the most important of these systems is homologous recombination, a highly accurate DNA repair process that depends on proteins such as RAD51 and CHK1. Cancer therapies known as PARP inhibitors were designed to exploit weaknesses in DNA repair. While these drugs have been successful against certain tumors, many cancers eventually adapt. By restoring their DNA repair capabilities, they become resistant to treatment and continue growing. Now,…
