Objectives: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an intractable T-cell malignancy caused by long-term infection with human T-cell leukemia virus type-1 (HTLV-1). While ATL pathogenesis has been associated with HTLV-1-derived oncogenic proteins, including Tax and HBZ, the contribution of genomic aberrations remains poorly defined.Methods: To elucidate the genomic basis of ATL, whole exome sequencing was performed on cells from 47 patients with aggressive ATL.Results: We discovered the novel mutation RLTPR Q575E in four patients (8.5%) with a median variant allele frequency of 0.52 (range 0.11-0.68). Despite being reported in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, three ATL patients carrying RLTPR Q575E lacked skin involvement. Patients carrying RLTPR Q575E also harbored CARD11 (75%), PLCG1 (25%), PRKCB (25%), or IKBKB (25%) mutations related to TCR/NF-κB signaling. Jurkat cells transfected with RLTPR Q575E cDNA displayed increased NF-κB activity and significantly increased IL-2 mRNA levels under stimulation. RLTPR Q575E increased the interaction between RLTPR and CARD11, while RLTPR directly interacted with Tax.Conclusions: We identified, and functionally validated, a novel gain-of-function mutation in patients with aggressive ATL. During TCR activation by Tax or gain-of-function mutations, RLTPR Q575E selectively upregulates NF-κB signaling and may exert oncogenic effects on ATL pathogenesis.This is the peer reviewed version of the following article:Yuichiro Uchida, Makoto Yoshimitsu, Miho Hachiman, Shuichi Kusano, Naosuke Arima, Kodai Shima, Maiko Hayashida, Yuhei Kamada, Daisuke Nakamura, Akihiko Arai, Yuetsu Tanaka, Hiromitsu Hara, Kenji IshitsukaRLTPR Q575E: A novel recurrent gain-of-function mutation in patients with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphomaEuropean Journal of Haematology (2021), 106(2), 221–229© 2020 John Wiley & Sons A/S.which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1111/ejh.13540This article may be used for non-commercial purposes in accordance with Wiley Terms and Conditions for Use of Self-Archived Versions.
