Abstract Class switch recombination (CSR) plays an important role in adaptive immune response by enabling mature B cells to replace the initial IgM by another antibody class (IgG, IgE or IgA). CSR is preceded by transcription of the IgH constant genes and is controlled by the super-enhancer 3′ regulatory region (3′RR) in an activation-specific manner. The 3’RR is composed of four enhancers (hs3a, hs1-2, hs3b and hs4). In mature B cells, 3’RR activity correlates with transcription of its enhancers. CSR can also occur in primary developing B cells though at low frequency, but in contrast to mature B cells, the transcriptional elements that regulate the process in developing B cells are ill-known. In particular, the role of the 3’RR in the control of constant genes’ transcription and CSR has not been addressed. Here, by using a mouse line devoid of the 3’RR and a culture system that highly enriches in pro-B cells, we show that the 3’RR activity is indeed required for switch transcription and CSR, though its effect varies in an isotype-specific manner and correlates with transcription of hs4 enhancer only. |
