GLY 34 to ARG or VAL called the G34R/V substitution. There are mutations in H3.3 that are found in different types of bone tumors like [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4446520/ chrondroblastoma] for example and giant cell tumors of the bone. [https://cancerdiscovery.aacrjournals.org/content/3/12/1329.1 Chondroblastoma] arises in children and in young adults in the cartilage of the growth plates of the long bones and is most typically benign.

[https://www.nature.com/articles/srep07115 CENP-A]is a centromere specific variant of Histone H3 and it's controlled in normal cells and its chromosome localization is heavily restricted in the centromere regions. It can be over expressed in cancer cells and also be mislocalized ectopically in the form of heterotypic nucleosomes containing H3.3.
