Chromatin dysregulation and DNA methylation at transcription start sites associated with transcriptional repression in cancers

Chromatin dysregulation and DNA methylation at transcription start sites associated with transcriptional repression in cancers

In tumours aberrant epigenetic modifications can alter the transcriptional state. Here, the authors identify a common tumour-specific shift to transcriptional repression associated with DNA methylation and chromatin dysregulation at the transcription start site.
