This study uncovers the role of epigenetic H2A monoubiquitination in the mouse brain’s response to chronic cocaine use. It also identifies genetic variations in humans linked to H2A monoubiquitination, modifying susceptibility to cocaine addiction and aggression, and paving the way for tailored treatments.
