Mutations in GNA13, which encodes a G protein alpha subunit involved in multiple signaling pathways, have been identified as significant contributors to the pathogenesis of germinal centre-derived B-cell lymphomas, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Burkitt lymphoma (BL).1 This gene has some recurrent sites of mutations (hot spots). Overall, mutations are often loss-of-function in nature, disrupting the normal activity of GNA13. GNA13 regulates B-cell homing and growth suppression within the germinal center niche and its loss of function promotes lymphoma development.2
