Swetha Rajasekaran et al. integrate transcriptional, proteomic, and metabolomic data to explore how cells adapt to inactivation of RB1, a hallmark of cancer. Combined with their genetic analyses in a Drosophila model, the authors identify key metabolic pathways that may be involved in the growth of RB1-depleted cancer cells.
