AICDA drives epigenetic heterogeneity and accelerates germinal center-derived lymphomagenesis

In diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) increased epigenetic heterogeneity in the form of cytosine methylation is known to link to a poor clinical outcome. Here, the authors show that AICDA, an enzyme required for DLBCL pathogenesis, increases cytosine methylation heterogeneity.
