IgE-associated IGHV genes from venom and peanut allergic individuals lack mutational evidence of antigen selection.

IgE-associated IGHV genes from venom and peanut allergic individuals lack mutational evidence of antigen selection.

Antigen selection of B cells within the germinal center reaction generally leads to the accumulation of replacement mutations in the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of immunoglobulin genes. Studies of mutations in IgE-associated VDJ gene sequences have cast doubt on the role of antigen se...
