DNMT3A mutations play a prominent role in clonal hematopoiesis and myeloid neoplasms with arginine (R)882 as a hotspot, however the clinical implications of R882 vs. non-R882 mutations in myeloid neoplasms like myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is unclear. The gene discussed is DNMT3A; the disease is myeloid neoplasm.
