New paper in PNAS: Antigen mobility regulates the dynamics and precision of antigen capture in the B cell immune synapse

Congrats Katelyn Spillane and the team!

Antigen mobility regulates the dynamics and precision of antigen capture in the B cell immune synapse | PNAS
B cells discriminate antigens in immune synapses by capturing them from antigen-presenting cells (APCs). This discrimination relies on the applicat...
