Biophysical characterization of affinity maturation in the human response to anthrax vaccine

Affinity maturation increases the affinity of B-cell derived antibodies to their cognate antigens. In this study, we characterized the kinetic, structural, dynamic and thermodynamic evolution of antibodies during affinity maturation. Through single B-cell cell sorting, paired heavy and light chain s...
