“…In addition to implicating cancer genes, genome sequencing studies have revealed structural variation in non-coding regions, including enhancer elements driving oncogene expression (Takeda et al, 2018;Viswanathan et al, 2018). Epigenetic characterization studies have further extended understanding of the noncoding genome by revealing the role of DNA methylation patterns (Bedford and van Helden, 1987;Börno et al, 2012;Friedlander et al, 2012;Jimenez et al, 2000;Lee et al, 1997;Mahapatra et al, 2012;Varambally et al, 2002;Xu et al, 2012;Zhao et al, 2020), specific transcription factor (TF) binding sites and histone modifications, including the characterization of the active enhancer landscape in PC tissues (Kron et al, 2017;Pomerantz et al, 2015Pomerantz et al, , 2020Stelloo et al, 2018;Urbanucci et al, 2012Urbanucci et al, , 2017Yu et al, 2010). Still, how the chromatin landscape evolves during PC progression and drives aberrant transcriptome (Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network, 2015) and proteome (Latonen et al, 2018;Sinha et al, 2019), is unclear.…”
