Retrotransposable element derepression distinguishes DNMT3A-mutant from TET2-mutant clonal haematopoiesis

Clonal haematopoiesis (CH) is driven by somatic mutations in haematopoietic stem cells that generate clonal populations detectable in peripheral blood and is present in 10-20% of individuals over the age of 65. Mutations in DNMT3A and TET2 are the most common drivers and have bee...
