Lentiviral-driven discovery of cancer drug resistance mutations
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Identifying resistance mutations in a drug target provides crucial information. Lentiviral transduction creates multiple types of mutations due to the error-prone nature of the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT). We optimized and leveraged this property to identify drug resistance mutations, a technique we term LentiMutate. After validating this technique by identifying clinically relevant EGFR resistance mutations, we applied this technique to two additional anti-cancer drugs, imatinib and AMG 510. We find novel deletions in BCR-ABL1 that confer resistance to BCR-ABL1 inhibitors and point mutations in the AMG 510 binding pocket or oncogenic non-G12C mutations, in KRAS-G12C or wild-type KRAS, respectively, that confer resistance to AMG 510. LentiMutate may prove highly valuable to clinical and preclinical cancer drug development.
