Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_MARGINAL_ZONE_B_CELL_DIFFERENTIATION

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_MARGINAL_ZONE_B_CELL_DIFFERENTIATION

Standard name GOBP_MARGINAL_ZONE_B_CELL_DIFFERENTIATION
Systematic name MM4232
Brief description The process in which a B cell in the spleen acquires the specialized features of a marginal zone B cell. Marginal zone B cells are localized in a distinct anatomical region of the spleen that represents the major antigen-filtering and scavenging area (by specialized macrophages resident there). It appears that they are preselected to express a BCR repertoire similar to B-1 B cells, biased toward bacterial cell wall constituents and senescent self-components (such as oxidized LDL).
