## Overview
3
-Mutations in EP300 are significant contributors to the pathogenesis and progression of B-cell lymphomas such as DLBCL and FL. These mutations impair histone acetylation, disrupt epigenetic gene regulation. EP300 mutations typically result in the loss of its HAT domain, which is crucial for acetylating histones and non-histone proteins.<sup>1,2</sup> Studies using genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens have identified synthetic lethal interactions between CREBBP and EP300, suggesting that targeting one may affect the viability of cells with mutations in the other.<sup>3</sup>

These mutations impair histone acetylation, disrupt epigenetic gene regulation. This gene has some recurrent sites of mutations (hot spots), which typically impact its HAT domain, a region crucial for acetylating histones and non-histone proteins.<sup>1,2</sup> Studies using genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens have identified synthetic lethal interactions between CREBBP and EP300, suggesting that targeting one may affect the viability of cells with mutations in the other.<sup>3</sup>
