Table 1.

Frequency of chromatin modifying and organizing gene mutations in B-cell and T-cell lymphomas. Data from genome, exome and transcriptome sequencing studies of FL [43, 113, 114, 116, 117, 119], BL [99, 120], DLBCL [34, 117, 118, 121, 122] and TCL [35, 123] with sufficient data quality are summarized.
