One of the fundamental aims of structural biology is the identification of high-affinity ligands for arbitrary receptors. The maturation of the antibody repertoire elegantly and robustly solves this problem through an evolutionary mechanism comprising repeated cycles of mutation and preferential replication. To understand better the limitations and biases of this process, we developed an interpretation of...
