In silico analysis of Schmidtea mediterranea TIR domain-containing proteins.

abstract：:To date, immunologists have operated with two primary paradigms governing the antibody response: (1) that affinity maturation is primarily dependent upon antigen-driven selection of both the germline and somatically amended repertoires, and (2) that antibody effector function is isotypically determined. The teleost mo...
