Abstract excerpt
In this issue, Köhnke, Karigane, and colleagues applied allele-specific CRISPR/Cas9 correction in human acute myeloid leukemia samples to dissect the stage-specific functions of DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) arginine 882 (R882) mutations. They demonstrate that DNMT3A R882 mutations are required to sustain self-renewal and inflammatory programs in preleukemic cells but become largely dispensable once leukemia...
