| 2 | 2 | ## Overview |
| 3 | -BTG1 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. These mutations are a feature of the MCD genetic subgroup of DLBCL.<sup>1</sup> Mutations in the BTG1 gene have been implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) through functional exploration in vivo. Knock-out of BTG1 did not lead to spontaneous lymphomagenesis but enhanced the lymphoproliferation induced by VavP-BCL2.<sup>2</sup> Another study demonstrated that specific BTG1 mutations afford germinal center (GC) B cells with a fitness advantage relative to un-mutated counterparts.<sup>3</sup> |
