Gut of newborns has unique bacteria that produce serotonin and promote the development of immune cells that may prevent allergic reactions to food and beneficial gut microbes, according to a preclinical study from @WCMpeds. bit.ly/3PjJDhi

Most recent work from the lab just out @Nature. By combining ancient DNA work, population genomics, and in vitro infections we show that the Black Death shaped the evolution of immune genes. Kuddos to co-first authors @TaurVil and Jennifer Klunk. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

A curated set of human immunoglobulin germline genes/alleles for better annotation of sequences encoding antibodies and antibody repertoires. It has potential to solve annotation problems you have not been aware of! #antibody #AIRRseq #repertoire biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

AIRR-C Human IG Reference Sets: curated sets of immunoglobulin heavy and light chain germline genes

Analysis of an individual’s immunoglobulin (IG) gene repertoire requires the use of high-quality germline gene Reference Sets. The Adaptive Immune Receptor Repertoire-Community (AIRR-C) Reference...

Antibodies are the product of evolution on two timescales: over millions of years in vertebrate populations, and within weeks of infection or 💉 in populations of B cells. We ask how those timescales interact in our paper out in @PLOSPathogens 🧵 1/n t.ly/U84Un

Germline-encoded specificities and the predictability of the B cell response

Author summary Antibodies arise as B cell receptors encoded by the stochastic recombination of immunoglobulin genes. While those genes evolve over millions of years, the receptors themselves evolve...
