Activation-induced Deaminase (AID)-directed Hypermutation in the Immunoglobulin Sμ Region: Implication of AID Involvement in a Common Step of Class Switch Recombination and Somatic Hypermutation

Somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) cause distinct genetic alterations at different regions of immunoglobulin genes in B lymphocytes: point mutations in variable regions and large deletions in S regions, respectively. Yet both depend on activation-induced deaminase (AID)...
