Mapping of the healthy immunoglobulin repertoire over the course of B cell maturation by deep pyrosequencing

Healthy immunoglobulin repertoire has not been extensively evaluated reflecting in part the challenge of generating sufficiently robust data sets by conventional clonal sequencing. Deep sequencing has revolutionized the capacity to evaluate the depth and breadth of the Ig repertoire along the B cell developmental pathway, and can be used to pin point defect(s) of primary or acquired B-cell associated diseases. In this study healthy IgM and IgG repertoires were studied by 454-pyrosequencing to establish the healthy controls for diseased repertoires. (...)
