Secret sharers in the immune system: a novel RNA editing activity links switch recombination and somatic hypermutation.

Genome biology - 1 Jan 2000

Maizels N

Abstract excerpt

A new mechanism for regulation in the immune system has been identified: a cytidine deaminase is critical for both class switch recombination and somatic hypermutation, revealing an unanticipated link between these two processes.
