The B cell antigen receptor in B-cell development
Current Opinion in Immunology, 1994 During B-cell development, immature and mature forms of the B cell antigen receptor complex are deployed in a regulated fashion; thus, B cell antigen receptor complexes play essential roles in the transit of cells through ontogeny. The past year has seen progress in our understanding of how antigen receptor gene assembly is controlled and in defining ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 This article describes the work I did in Bill Paul’s lab as a postdoctoral fellow between 1979 and 1983, and to a lesser extent puts that work in the context of other work on B cell activation and antibody responses that was going on in Bill’s lab at ...

Site-specific Labeling of B Cell Receptor and Soluble Immunoglobulin
Bio-Protocol, 2020 B lymphocyte activation is regulated by its membrane-bound B cell receptors (BCRs) upon recognizing diverse antigens. It is hypothesized that antigen binding would trigger conformational changes within BCRs, followed by a series of downstream signaling ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Isotype Specific Assembly of B Cell Antigen Receptors and Synergism With Chemokine Receptor CXCR4
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Expression of the membrane-bound form of the immunoglobulin (Ig) as part of the antigen receptor is indispensable for both the development and the effector function of B cells.
