“DNMT3A is one of the two enzymes responsible for de novo methylation of the fifth position in cytosine bases of DNA, a mark that is thought to influence gene expression (47, 48).”
Dnmt3a is essential for hematopoietic stem cell differentiation

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
