Epimutations play a central role in the etiology of human cancers. In contrast to DNA mutations, passively inherited through DNA replication, epimutations must be actively maintained because of their reversibility. Together with the acetylation/deacetylation process, the methylation/demethylation of histone tails play a key role in the regulation of gene expression. Such mechanisms are tuned and c
