Abstract excerpt
Truncating mutations in the tumor suppressor STAG2, which encodes a component of the cohesin complex, are prevalent across diverse human cancers. Here, we report that acute reconstitution of physiological STAG2 levels in STAG2-mutant human glioblastoma multiforme cancer cells triggers a rapid reduction in the size of chromatin loops genome-wide. Despite this global change in chromatin loop size, early...
