Germinal center B cell lymphomas (GC-NHL) including follicular lymphoma (FL) and aggressive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and account for the vast majority of lymphoid malignancies worldwide. FL is indolent, but transformation to DLBCL is a major cause of mortality. The mechanisms underlying the transformation process are not completely understood and in particular, the role of post-translational mechanisms in disease evolution are underappreciated. We employed integrated functional and structural genomics and mass spectrometry (MS)-driven proteomics to discover novel factors involved in GC lymphoma pathogenesis. We identified a conserved a role for a conserved E3 ubiquitin ligase in GC lymphoma pathogenesis and its substrate required for observed phenotypes knockout animals. Overall, our studies demonstrate that proteogenomics can facilitate elucidation of cancer pathgenesis with implications for identification of novel targeted therapies in cancer.
