Summary

The development and differentiation of plasma cells, which are terminally differentiated B-cells, are induced by Blimp-1 (B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein, also designated PRDI-BF1). Blimp-1 is a transcriptional repressor that localizes to the nucleus and is considered a master regulator of terminal B-cell development. Alone, Blimp-1 is sufficient to trigger terminal B-cell differentiation. Blimp-1 upregulates the expression of syndecan-1 and J chain, represses IFN-b gene transcription and associates with HDAC to recruit it to DNA, thereby repressing c-Myc. Blimp-1 is expressed during the late stages of B-cell differentiation in immunoglobulin-secreting plasma cells, as well as in long-lived, bone marrow plasma cells. The expression of Blimp-1 defines a checkpoint beyond which fully activated B cells proceed to the plasma cell stage, whereas immature and partially activated cells are eliminated.

Functions

  • Transcription factor that mediates a transcriptional program in various innate and adaptive immune tissue-resident lymphocyte T cell types such as tissue-resident memory T (Trm), natural killer (trNK) and natural killer T (NKT) cells and negatively regulates gene expression of proteins that promote the egress of tissue-resident T-cell populations from non-lymphoid organs. Plays a role in the development, retention and long-term establishment of adaptive and innate tissue-resident lymphocyte T cell types in non-lymphoid organs, such as the skin and gut, but also in other nonbarrier tissues like liver and kidney, and therefore may provide immediate immunological protection against reactivating infections or viral reinfection (By similarity). Binds specifically to the PRDI element in the promoter of the beta-interferon gene (PubMed:1851123). Drives the maturation of B-lymphocytes into Ig secreting cells (PubMed:12626569). Associates with the transcriptional repressor ZNF683 to chromatin at gene promoter regions (By similarity). Binds to the promoter and acts as a transcriptional repressor of IRF8, thereby promotes transcription of osteoclast differentiation factors such as NFATC1 and EEIG1 (By similarity).
