• Sly1 is a ribosomal protein that affects NK ribosome stability at resto Ribosomal stress is a sign of malignant transformation which can
destroy the cell or decrease its activation/viability
• Prior to our research, most X linked ribosomopathies were considered severely disabling but we now demonstrate that subtle defects can manifest such as NK dysfunction and immunologic susceptibility to lung cancer
• IL2 can alleviate ribosomal stress and may be useful in lung cancer immunotherapy
