Disruption of lamina-associated genome organization activates neuronal gene programs in H3.3K27M DIPG

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a fatal pediatric brain tumor frequently driven by a histone H3 mutation that substitutes lysine 27 with methionine (H3K27M). While H3K27M is known to cause a global depletion of the repressive histone mark H3K27me3, how this epigenetic disruption contributes to oncogenic transcriptional reprogramming remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that…
