N-terminal mutations in the transcription factor Myocyte Enhancer Factor 2B (MEF2B) are reported to drive lymphomagenesis. Here, the authors show that lymphoma-associated C-terminal mutations in MEF2B impair its phosphorylation, leading to increased stability and transcriptional activity to promote B-cell lymphomagenesis.
