Caroline Crocker Quote | In fact, I have never before heard the process whereby functional antibodies are formed (before they encounter antigen) described as mutation. | Quite random recombination together with selection which she doesn't mention is sufficient to generate quite some repertoire. And by saying "before they encounter antigen" she doesn't have to deal with somatic hypermutation and antibody maturation.
