FoxO1 induces Ikaros splicing to promote immunoglobulin gene recombination
30 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Somatic rearrangement of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes is a key step during B cell development. Using pro-B cells lacking the phosphatase Pten (phosphatase and tensin homolog), which negatively regulates phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) signaling, we show that PI3K signaling inhibits Ig gene rearrangement by suppressing the expression of the transcription factor Ikaros. Further analysis revealed that the...
