After antigen recognition, B cells are activated and interact with other cells within secondarylymphoid organs (dendritic cells, T lymphocytes …) to form a germinal center. In the GC, the IgH locusis reorganized in order to increase the affinity of immunoglobulins for antigen through somatichypermutation (SHM) of V(D)J regions and to configure them into several forms harboring diversifiedmodes of action after “class switc recombination” (CSR). Both mechanisms are initiated by ActivationInduced Deaminase (AID) which targets DNA cytosines to convert them into uracil, then causing singleor double strand breaks in DNA when the mismatchs are located close to each other. It has been shownthat AID can target the IgH locus 3’ regulatory region on s...
