Synthetic lethality?? Help, please

[horst ibelgaufts]

Dear netters,
somebody mentioned the term synthetic lethality the other day but was not
able to explain what it is. Can someone out there enlighten me and perhaps
also point me to relevant reverences?
Thanks. Will summarise if required.

Have a nice day
