title: Transcriptional regulation during B cell development.
abstract: Information is increasingly available concerning the molecular events that occur during primary and antigen-dependent stages of B cell development. In this review the roles of transcription factors and coactivators are discussed with respect to changes in expression patterns of various genes during B cell development. Transcriptional regulation is also discussed in the context of developmentally regulated immunoglobulin gene V(D)J recombination, somatic hypermutation, and isotype switch recombination.
