(Submitter supplied) Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG) are characterized by a heterozygous lysine-to-methionine mutation of histone H3 (H3K27M) that potently reduces Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) methylation of wild-type histone H3K27 (H3K27wt). The role of H3K27M and reduced H3K27wt methylation in DIPG pathogenesis has yet to be determined. Here, we have performed epigenomic profiling of patient-derived H3K27M mutant DIPG cells and demonstrate that H3K27M resides in nucleosomes with H3K27wt acetylation (H3K27ac), and H3K27M-H3K27ac containing nucleosomes co-localize with bromodomain proteins at actively transcribed genes and that PRC2 is excluded from H3K27M occupied regions. more...
