The B cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway and acquired, primary, driver Gain-of-Function (GoF) mutations found in CLL and other BTKi-sensitive malignancies . CD79A and B GoF, found in WM and ABC-type DLBCL, and very rare in CLL, are labeled with yellow contour. Signaling proteins marked with
indicate those affected by primary GoF mutations in adult T cell leukemia as reported (103). The MYD88 L265P GoF mutation in 95% of WM patients, and also in ABC-type DLBCL, and in some CLL patients induces an activated endolysosome containing TLR9 and the BCR.
