Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> The epigenetic regulator EZH2 is a subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), methylates H3K27, resulting in transcriptional silencing. The mutation at Y646 amino acid in the EZH2 gene is mutated in up to 40 % of B-cell lymphomas. We compared the presence of exon 16 EZH2 mutations in tumor samples and ctDNA in a prospective trial. The mutations were determined by sanger sequencing,...
