PTEN regulates glioblastoma oncogenesis through chromatin-associated complexes of DAXX and histone H3.3

PTEN mutations are frequent in glioblastoma and often are associated with therapeutic resistance. Here, the authors demonstrate that PTEN regulates gene expression at the chromatin level by interacting with the histone chaperone DAXX and H3.3, and that DAXX inhibition inhibits PTEN-deficient GBM gro...
