An arrayed CRISPR screen of primary B cells reveals the essential elements of the antibody secretion pathway
13 Feb 2023
Abstract excerpt
Background Humoral immunity depends on the differentiation of B cells into antibody secreting cells (ASCs). Excess or inappropriate ASC differentiation can lead to antibody-mediated autoimmune diseases, while impaired differentiation results in immunodeficiency. Methods We have used CRISPR/Cas9 technology in primary B cells to screen for regulators of terminal differentiation and antibody production. Results We...
