HGG-37. PAEDIATRIC GLIOBLASTOMA CELLS SHOW CRITICAL DEPENDENCIES ON EPIGENOMIC AND EPITRANSCRIPTOMIC CONTROL OF GENE EXPRESSION BY H3.3G34R/V MUTATIONS

Abstract H3.3G34R/V mutations are restricted to glioblastomas of the cerebral hemispheres, and occur predominantly in adolescents and young adults. We had previously shown these mutations to result in a global re-organisation of the activating mark H3K36me3 to drive transcription of key developmenta...

Description
Summary:Abstract H3.3G34R/V mutations are restricted to glioblastomas of the cerebral hemispheres, and occur predominantly in adolescents and young adults. We had previously shown these mutations to result in a global re-organisation of the activating mark H3K36me3 to drive transcription of key developmental transcription factors and oncogenes such as MYCN, however the precise mechanism was unclear. Using multiple H3G34R/V samples and ChIP-seq with antibodies specific to both wild-type and mutant histone H3.3, we show a high degree of incorporation of mutant histone into nucleosomes, with only a minority (
