Overview
DUSP2 functions as a negative regulator of MAPK signaling,
particularly affecting the ERK1/2 pathway. DUSP2 mutations have been
reported in nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL),
T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma (T/HRLBCL)1,2 and they are relatively frequent
in DLBCL.
DUSP2 is one of a
number of genes affected by aberrant somatic hypermutation in B-cell
lymphomas, which complicates the interpretation of mutations at this
locus. These mutations are associated with the ST2 genetic subgroup of
DLBCL. This gene has some recurrent sites of mutations (hot spots). The
mutation pattern in DLBCL implies the preferential accumulation of
inactivating mutations.
Relevance tier by entity

|---|---|---|
| 1 | high-confidence PMBL/cHL/GZL gene3 | |
| 1 | aSHM target and high-confidence DLBCL gene4,5 | |
| 2 | aSHM target; Although recurrent, the relevance of mutations in FL is tenuous |
