Failure of B-cell differentiation in mice lacking the transcription factor EBF

Lin, Haishan, Grosschedl, Rudolf·1995·Nature

Abstract

Early B-cell factor (EBF) is a cell type-specific transcription factor that is expressed at all antigen-independent stages of B-lymphocyte differentiation and participates in the regulation of the mb-1 gene. Here we show, by targeted gene disruption in mice, that EBF is necessary for the generation of immunoglobulin-expressing B cells. EBF-deficient mice lack B cells that have rearranged their immunoglobulin D and JH gene segments, but contain B220+CD43+ progenitor cells that express germline mu and IL-7 receptor transcripts. Various non-lymphoid tissues that express EBF are apparently normal in homozygous mutant mice, including olfactory neurons in which EBF was identified as Olf-1 (refs 5, 6). Together, these data suggest that EBF plays a specific and important role in the transcriptional control of B-cell differentiation at a stage before Ig (immunoglobulin) gene rearrangement but after commitment of cells to the B-lymphoid lineage.

  • Developmental progression of B cells is critically dependent on activity of various transcription factors binding to promoter and enhancer elements of Ig genes.

    “In fact, gene-targeting studies indicate that the developmental progression of B cells is critically dependent on the activity of various transcription factors, which bind to promoter and enhancer elements of Ig genes (heavy and light chains), suggesting a link between the signal transduction and transcription factors during B-cell development (13-18”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
