The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, a tumour suppressor, a biomarker and a fusion partner, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Lung cancer, Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and 1 more.","summary":"Plays a key role in both adaptive and innate immune signalling by bridging CARD domain-containing proteins to immune activation. Acts by channeling adaptive and innate immune signalling downstream of CARD domain-containing proteins CARD9, CARD11 and CARD14 to activate NF-kappa-B and MAP kinase p38 (MAPK11, MAPK12, MAPK13 and/or MAPK14) pathways which stimulate expression of genes encoding pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Recruited by activated CARD domain-containing proteins: homooligomerised CARD domain-containing proteins form a nucleating helical template that recruits BCL10 via CARD-CARD interaction, thereby promoting polymerisation of BCL10, subsequent recruitment of MALT1 and formation of a CBM complex.\n\nCIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant. Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.69 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.80, genetic association 0.19, somatic mutation 0.88).
