Abstract excerpt
The DNA methyltransferase, Dnmt3a, is dynamically regulated throughout mammalian B cell development and upon activation by antigenic stimulation. Dnmt3a inactivation in hematopoietic stem cells has been shown to drive B cell-related malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and associates with specific DNA methylation patterns in transformed cells. However, while it is clear that inactivation of...
