The H3F3 K36M mutant antibody is a sensitive and specific marker for the diagnosis of chondroblastoma.

Aims: We recently reported that 95% of chondroblastomas harbour a p.K36M mutation in either H3F3A (chromosome 1) or H3F3B (chromosome 17), with the majority involving H3F3B. The aim of this study was to assess the expression of the K36M-mutated protein by immunohistochemistry in a large group of tumours.
