Extended Data Fig. 1. Flow cytometry gating schemes for B cell subsets.

Extended Data Fig. 1

Gating strategy for B cell isolation. Panels a—d show naive cell gating, panels e—g show memory cell gating, and panels h—i show plasmablast gating. a, Hierarchical gating scheme for lymphocytes, single cells, live cells, and CD3-negative cells. b, We gated CD19+CD27± cells from CD3− cells for further analysis. Donor samples displayed noticeable differences in CD19 and CD27 expression. c, We analyzed CD19+CD27− cells for surface IgD expression and gated IgD+ cells for further analysis. d, We selected naive B cells by sorting CD19+CD27–IgD+CD24±CD38± B cells. e, For memory cell gating, we selected CD19+CD27+ cells from b for CD24+CD38+ positivity. f, We analyzed cells from e and isolated unswitched memory cells using IgD±IgM++ gating. g, We analyzed cells from e and isolated switched memory cells using IgD−CD95+ gating. h, We analyzed CD19+CD27+ cells from b and gated the IgD–CD27+ population. i, We sorted plasmablasts using CD24–CD38++ gating.
