HIRA-mediated loading of histone variant H3.3 controls androgen-induced transcription by regulation of AR/BRD4 complex assembly at enhancers.

*H3.3 at enhancers promotes acetylation of H3K27Ac and retention of AR/BRD4 complex for transcription regulation*Knockout of H3.3 chaperone HIRA suppresses PC cells growth and deregulates androgen-induced transcription*H3.3/HIRA pathway regulates both AR and GR, suggesting a common HIRA/H3.3 mechanism of nuclear receptors function.
