HP-1γ controls high-affinity antibody response to T-dependent antigens

In vitro observations suggest a role for the mouse heterochromatin protein 1 γ (HP-1γ) in the immune system. However, it has not been shown if and how HP-1γ contributes to immunity in vivo. Here we show that in mice, HP-1γ positively regulates the germinal center reaction and high-affinity antibody...
