The BCL6 RD2 Domain Governs Commitment of Activated B Cells to Form Germinal Centers

To understand how the Bcl6 transcriptional repressor functions in the immune system, we disrupted its RD2 repression domain in mice. Bcl6RD2MUT mice exhibit a complete loss of germinal center (GC) formation but retain normal extrafollicular responses. Bcl6RD2MUT antigen-engaged B cells migrate to th...
