Term:B cell affinity maturation
go back to main search page
Accession:GO:0002344 term browser browse the term
Definition:The process in which B cells produce antibodies with increased antigen affinity. This is accomplished by somatic hypermutation and selection for B cells which produce higher affinity antibodies to antigen.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: B-lymphocyte affinity maturation
