Pioneer transcription factors are associated with the modulation of DNA methylation patterns across cancers

Abstract Methylation of cytosines on DNA is a prominent modification associated with gene expression regulation. Aberrant DNA methylation patterns have recurrently been linked to dysregulation of the regulatory program in cancer cells. To shed light on the underlying molecular mechanism driving this...
