Info:
Scientists from the University of Western Ontario report in this Journal of Immunology paper a research effort to understand how faulty B cell development in mice leads to a form of leukemia. Ultimately, they determined that inducing Btk expression leads to apoptosis, perhaps preventing leukemia formation. Pippin Prep sizing was used for ChIP-seq on an Illumina HiSeq 2000.
