Abstract excerpt
TET2 , located on chromosome 4q24, is frequently mutated (~60%) in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). 1 , 2 TET2 has 11 exons, and variations, especially in exon 3 have been described as a part of age-related clonal hematopoiesis. 3 In a large population-based study ( n =17 182), somatic variations involving DNMT3A , TET2 and ASXL1 were seen in ~11% of the population >80 years of age, and in...
