Mutation in tumor suppressor genes (KEAP1, PBRM1) and genes involved in extrinsic apoptosis (CASP8), antigen-presentation (HLA-A, HLA-B), immune regulation (SMAD4) or DNA repair (BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53BP1) correlated with TLS alteration in multiple tumor types, indicating the interaction between mutation landscape and TLS formation. The gene discussed is HLA-A; the disease is neoplasm.
