MAT2A
MAT2A Inhibition is Synthetic Lethal with MTAP Deletion
Strategies to address MTAP-/- Prevalence in ~15% of all Solid Tumors
MTAP-MAT2A Synthetic Lethality Biology
MTAP
Methionine
MAT2A is key enzyme that
produces SAM in cells
MTAP deletion leads
to MTA accumulation
MAT2A
MAT2A
inhibitor
MTA accumulation
partially inhibits PRMT5

PRMT5
Inhibition of MAT2A
results in reduction of
SAM, starving PRMT5
of its substrate
