Description

Maturation of the antibody repertoire is mediated by two different mechanisms: class-switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM). These two processes are T cell dependent and occur in the germinal centres of secondary lymphoid organs. CSR leads to the production of antibodies of different isotypes whereas SHM leads to the selection of B cells expressing a BCR with high affinity for antigen. The activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) was recently shown to play a key role in these two mechanisms, demonstrating for the first time that these maturation processes share a common mechanism. There is evidence that AID is involved in the somatic DNA alterations required for CSR and SHM.
