Abstract
Leukaemic stem cells drive acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) progression and relapse but they are incompletely characterized. Here, the authors combine single-cell transcriptomics and clonal tracking using nuclear and mitochondrial somatic variants to distinguish healthy, pre-leukaemic and leukaemic stem cells in AML.
