Representative life histories of the PIG-A mutant clone. Once the mutation appears in a HSC, the mutated SC may stochastically expand to become the dominant contributor to hematopoiesis (and PNH will be diagnosed), undergo stochastic extinction, or “stabilize” for many years. Given the limited resolution of standard flow cytometry, the size of the clone may appear “stable” for years (Inset).
