Abstract excerpt
The B cell antigen receptor (BCR) delivers antigen to the endocytic compartment and transduces signals that regulate the stability of the receptor complex. Previous studies showed that BCR-mediated signal transduction dissociates micro-heavy chain (microm) from Ig-alpha/Ig-beta, facilitating the delivery of antigen to clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). Herein, we demonstrate that the dissociation of...
