Abstract

B cell receptor (BCR) transgenic mice allow the control of the initial target (antigen) specificity of naïve B cells and to investigate their properties following activation. Here, I describe how BCR transgenic B cells can be used in combination with adoptive cell transfer and immunization models to study memory B cell formation and reactivation.
