Synthetic rescue
text:
Synthetic rescue refers to a genetic interaction in which a cell that is nonviable, sensitive to a specific drug, or otherwise impaired due to the presence of a genetic mutation becomes viable when the original mutation is combined with a second mutation in a different gene. The second mutation can either be a loss-of-function mutation or a gain-of-function mutation. Synthetic rescue could potentially be exploited for gene therapy, but it also provides information on the function of the genes in
