Abstract excerpt
Somatic hypermutation (SHM) drives antibody affinity maturation in B cells. By mimicking this process, guided hypermutation (GHM) tools employing CRISPR systems and activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) have advanced antibody development. However, GHM-induced mutations in cultured cells exhibit mutation patterns distinct from those observed in natural antibody diversification following in vivo affinity...
