Differentiation of B lymphocytes into Ab-secreting plasmablasts and plasma cells is Ag driven. The interaction of Ag with the membrane-bound Ab of the BCR is critical in determining which clones enter the plasma cell response. However, not much is known about the coupling between BCR activation and the shift in transcription factor network from that of a B cell to that of ASC differentiation. Our genome-wide analysis shows that Ab-secreting cell differentiation of mouse B cells is induced by BCR ...[more]
