Syk Tyrosine Kinase Is Required for the Positive Selection of Immature B Cells into the Recirculating B Cell Pool

The tyrosine kinase Syk has been implicated as a key signal transducer from the B cell antigen receptor (BCR). We show here that mutation of the Syk gene completely blocks the maturation of immature B cells into recirculating cells and stops their entry into B cell follicles. Furthermore, using radi...
