MYC oncogene promotes tumourigenesis by coordinating cancer cell proliferation with metabolic adaptation to the consequent excessive oxidative stress. Here, the authors show that nudix hydrolase 1 (NUDT1) is a MYC-driven metabolic vulnerability and generate a NUDT1 protein degrader to treat preclinical MYC-associated cancer.
