Jeffrey Trent, David Huntsman and colleagues identify the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling gene SMARCA4 as commonly mutated in small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT). Their results implicate SMARCA4 as a crucial factor in the oncogenesis of SCCOHT, a rare but highly malignant cancer.
