Casitas B-lineage lymphoma (CBL) encodes an adaptor protein with E3-ligase activity negatively controlling intracellular signaling downstream of receptor tyrosine kinases. Somatic CBL mutations play a driver role in a variety of cancers, particularly myeloid malignancies, whereas germline defects in the same gene underlie a RASopathy having clinical overlap with Noonan syndrome (NS) and predisposing to juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and vasculitis. Other features of the disorder include cardiac defects, postnatal growth delay, cryptorchidism, facial dysmorphisms, and predisposition to develop autoimmune disorders.
