Abstract
Targeting histone acetylation modulators (HAMPs) is a promising avenue of drug discovery in cancer research. Here, the authors integrate multi-dimensional genomic profiles to systematically investigate recurrent genomic alterations in HAMPs, identifying potential therapeutic targets for precision epigenetic treatment.
