Protein evolution by hypermutation and selection in the B cell line DT40

Genome-wide mutations and selection within a population are the basis of natural evolution. A similar process occurs during antibody affinity maturation when immunoglobulin genes are hypermutated and only those B cells which express antibodies of improved antigen-binding specificity are expanded.
