title = "Roles of TRAF molecules in B lymphocyte function",
abstract = "Tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factors (TRAFs) play a variety of interesting and important roles in the regulation of B lymphocyte function. They act both as cytoplasmic regulatory molecules, and as signal transducers for receptors involved in both innate and adaptive humoral immune responses. In this brief review, we highlight the current state of knowledge of the diverse roles of TRAF molecules in the functions of B lymphocytes.",

note = "Funding Information: Zachary J. Kraus graduated from California State University at Chico with a B.S. in Microbiology. He joined Gail Bishop's laboratory in the spring of 2004 where his primary interest is in the role of TNF-receptor superfamily members in T cell co-stimulation. He is currently funded by an American Heart Association predoctoral fellowship. Funding Information: Ping Xie earned the PhD from the Hong Kong University of Science & Technology, followed by postdoctoral work at the University of Illinois at Chicago and the University of Iowa. She is currently an Assistant Research Scientist at the University of Iowa. She was a Special Fellow of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society from 2002–2005. Her research is currently supported by a National Scientist Development Grant from the American Heart Association. ",
