Abstract

AbstractThe ratio between Igκ and Igλ light chain (LC)-expressing B cells varies considerably between species. We recently identified Kinase D-interacting substrate of 220 kDa (Kidins220) as an interaction partner of the BCR. In vivo ablation of Kidins220 in B cells resulted in a marked reduction of λLC-expressing B cells. Kidins220 knockout B cells fail to open and recombine the genes of the λLC locus, even in genetic scenarios where the κLC genes cannot be rearranged or where the κLC confers autoreactivity. κLC gene recombination and expression in Kidins220-deficient B cells is normal. Kidins220 regulates the development of λLC B cells by enhancing the survival of developing B cells and thereby extending the time-window in which the λLC locus opens and the genes are rearranged and transcribed. Further, our data suggest that Kidins220 guarantees optimal pre-BCR and BCR signaling to induce λLC locus opening and gene recombination during B cell development and receptor editing.One Sentence SummaryWe demonstrate that the scaffold protein Kidins220 regulates the development of λLC B cells by supporting B cell precursor survival and optimizing pre-BCR and BCR signaling to open, recombine, and transcribe the genes of the λLC locus.
