Characterization of an IgA rheumatoid factor: finding properties and reactivity with the subclasses of human G globulin

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
