Bivalent anti-mu antibodies suppress LPS-driven B cell differentiation by inhibiting the coordinate activation of a family of differentiation-related genes, including those encoding the heavy, light, and J chains of IgM. We have shown that the presence of inhibitors of RNA or protein synthesis during a pulse with anti-mu can interfere with induction of suppression. We suggest that suppression is mediated by a trans-acting repressor protein with specificity for common motifs in regulatory regions of each of these genes.
双价抗μ抗体通过抑制包括编码IgM重链、轻链和J链的基因在内的一系列分化相关基因的协同激活,来抑制脂多糖驱动的B细胞分化。我们已经表明,在抗μ脉冲期间RNA或蛋白质合成抑制剂的存在会干扰抑制的诱导。我们认为抑制作用是由一种反式作用阻遏蛋白介导的,该蛋白对这些基因每个基因调控区域中的共同基序具有特异性。
