Several alterations like IDH1/2 mutations that interfere with “epigenetic modifier” enzymes, the mutations of the histone 3 variants H3.1 and H3.3 that alter the global H3K27me3 levels and the altered expression of histone methyltransferases and demethylases are considered potentially druggable targets in glioma and molecules targeting these alterations are being tested in preclinical and clinical trials. Here, IDH1 is linked to glioma.
