ABSTRACT
Cancer cells thrive on genetic and epigenetic changes that confer a selective advantage but also need strategies to avoid immune recognition. In this issue, Cuellar et al. (2017. J. Cell Biol https//doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201612160) find that the histone methyltransferase SETDB1 enables acute myeloid leukemia cells to evade sensing of retrotransposons by innate immune receptors.
