Abstract excerpt
DNMT3A mutations are prevalent in haematologic malignancies. In our mouse model the murine homologue (R878H) of the human 'hotspot' R882H mutation is introduced into the mouse Dnmt3a locus. This results in globally reduced DNA methylation in all tissues. Mice with heterozygous R878H DNMT3A mutations develop γ-radiation induced thymic lymphoma more rapidly than control mice, suggesting a vulnerability to stress...
