Planteome: Term Details for "B cell affinity maturation" (GO:0002344)

Term Information

Accession: GO:0002344
Name: B cell affinity maturation
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: B lymphocyte affinity maturation, B-cell affinity maturation, B-lymphocyte affinity maturation
Alternate IDs: None
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. Source: ISBN:0781735149, GO_REF:0000022, GOC:jal
