Abstract

The significance of epigenomic aberrations in cancer development has been underscored by the discovery of mutations in key chromatin modifiers, most notably in hematological malignancies. A new study of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) demonstrates the usefulness of mapping global epigenetic signatures and applying these data in a framework to identify and characterize underlying somatic genetic alterations in human cancers.
