Abstract excerpt
The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeler family includes the BAF and PBAF complexes. ARID2, encoding a PBAF complex subunit, is frequently mutated in melanoma independently of BRAF/RAS mutations. Emerging evidence shows that SWI/SNF complexes regulate tumor immunity; for instance, the loss of PBRM1, another PBAF complex subunit, enhances susceptibility to immune checkpoint inhibitors in melanoma. Notably, ARID2 mutations...
