    NKLAM, also known as RNF19b, is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that plays a role in regulating tumor development in vivo.

  • 2

    NKLAM deficiency in Eμ-myc mice leads to accelerated development of B cell lymphomas compared to wild type mice.

  • 3

    NKLAM KO Eμ-myc mice exhibit higher levels of precursor B cells that express more myc and Bcl-2, persisting longer than in WT mice.

  • 4

    Infusion of NKLAM+ immune cells into NKLAM-deficient Eμ-myc mice extends survival and promotes development of less immunogenic lymphomas.

  • 5

    NKLAM contributes to both early and late phases of myc-driven B cell lymphomagenesis by limiting myc and Bcl-2 expression.
