BCR (Breakpoint Cluster Region Protein) 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. This gene has some recurrent sites of mutations (hot spots).

Relevance tier by entity

Entity Tier Description
DLBCL 1-a aSHM target and high-confidence DLBCL gene
BL 2-a aSHM target; Although recurrent, the relevance of mutations in BL is tenuous

Mutation incidence in large patient cohorts (GAMBL reanalysis)

Entity source frequency (%)
BL GAMBL genomes+capture 6.00
BL Thomas cohort 6.40
BL Panea cohort 10.90
DLBCL GAMBL genomes 4.97
DLBCL Schmitz cohort 6.38
DLBCL Reddy cohort 3.90
DLBCL Chapuy cohort 4.27
