Description
IgE antibodies mediate the symptoms of allergic reactions, yet these antibodies and the cells that produce them remain enigmatic due to their scarcity in humans. To address this, we have isolated single B cells of all isotypes, including rare IgE producing B cells, from the peripheral blood of food allergic individuals. Using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) we have characterized the gene expression, splicing, and heavy and light chain antibody sequences of these cells.
