The paper identifies CHD1 as a synthetic lethal target in MYC-driven breast cancer, showing that its loss suppresses tumor growth and induces cell death in MYC-overexpressing models.

The paper determines the structural basis of TMPRSS11D autocleavage activation and shows that nafamostat mesylate is cleaved by TMPRSS11D, reducing its efficacy as a protease inhibitor.
