Abstract: The patriarch of the haematopoietic system, which generates all the various kinds of specialized blood cells, is a stem cell found in adult bone marrow. Studies of how it differentiates have revealed a remarkable finding -- if this cell is denied the transcription factor Pax5 at a particular stage, instead of becoming an antibody-producing B cell some six other options become available to it.
