Our next goal was to define the molecular signatures of each TSC hamartomatous lesion type using genome-wide DNA methylation and transcript profiling. Unsupervised clustering of DNA methylation array data revealed lesion
[Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC5481739 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 12
Evidence Type(s): Functional, Oncogenic
Justification: Functional: The passage discusses the somatic DNMT3A-V716F mutation and its predicted effect on methyltransferase activity, indicating that the variant alters molecular function. Oncogenic: The mention of the somatic DNMT3A-V716F mutation in the context of a tumor suggests that it contributes to tumor development or progression.
