NF-κB/RelA Signaling Required for CD40-Induced Humoral Immunity Depends on Specific NEMO Lysine Residues in Mice. The NF-κB signaling pathway serves several key purposes in biology, often focused on immune cells. Using their deep understanding of a specific branch of this signaling pathway, Dr. Miyamoto’s team (along with two more junior McArdle faculty, Drs. Dinh and …
