Depleting GMFγ does not impair CD79 phosphorylation induced by soluble anti-Ig antibodies. Cells were transfected with either control siRNA or GMFγ siRNA. (A) Raji D1.3 B cells were stimulated with 20 μg/mL goat anti-mouse IgM to initiate signaling through the D1.3 BCR. (B) Ramos B cells were stimulated with donkey anti-human IgM. Cell lysates were analyzed by immunoblotting with antibodies that recognize the phosphorylated CD79a ITAM (pCD79a), actin (loading control), or GMFγ. The left panels show a representative experiment. The right panels show results from 4 independent experiments. For each sample, the pCD79a band intensity was divided by the corresponding actin band intensity (loading control). The resulting ratios were normalized to that for the 0 min control siRNA cell sample (defined as 1.0) in the same experiment. On the graph, each of the four experiments is indicated by a different symbol. The bars show the mean ± SEM. Paired t-tests were used to calculate p-values. ns, not significant (p > 0.05).
