American journal of hematology - 1 Aug 1999

Abstract excerpt
Compelling evidence indicates that mutations in PIG-A are necessary for the development of paroxysmal nocturnal hemaglobinuria (PNH), however, it is unclear why mutant PIG-A stem cells have a selective advantage. Further, multiple, discrete PIG-A mutations have been detected in the peripheral blood and bone marrow of patients with PNH, but the contribution of the different mutant clones to hematopoiesis is...
