Characterization of DNA G-Quadruplex Structures in Human Immunoglobulin Heavy Variable (IGHV) Genes

Activation-induced deaminase (AID) is a key enzyme involved in antibody diversification by initiating somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class-switch recombination (CSR) of the Immunoglobulin (Ig) loci. AID preferentially targets WRC (W=A/T, R=A/G) hotspot motifs and avoids SYC (S=C/G, Y=C/T) coldspots...
