Researchers have recognized that aberrant methylation is an important initiating event in the pathogenesis of hematological malignancies. DNMT3A is a DNA methyltransferase that plays a vital role in de novo methylation of DNA. Somatic mutation of DNMT3A, especially at the Arg882 (R882) site of the DNMT3A coding sequence, has been identified in pre-leukemic stem cell clones as one of the driver mutations of acute...
