-BCL7A protein interacts with components of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, implicating it in chromatin remodeling processes essential for normal cellular function.<sup>1</sup> Mutations in the BCL7A gene have been identified in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and other B-cell lymphomas, implicating this gene in the pathogenesis of these cancers. Importantly, BCL7A is one of [a number of genes](https://github.com/morinlab/LLMPP/wiki/ashm) affected by aberrant somatic hypermutation in B-cell lymphomas, which complicates the interpretation of mutations at this locus. Due to recurrent loss-of-function mutations, BCL7A has been described as a tumour-suppressor gene in DLBCL.<sup>3</sup>
