BACKGROUND: DNA-methyltransferase (DNMT)-3A plays an important role in the development of embryogenesis and the generation of aberrant methylation in carcinogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of a DNMT3A promoter genetic variant on its transcriptional activity and to evaluate...
