Molecular Mechanisms That Orchestrate the Assembly of Antigen Receptor Loci , the latest volume in the Advances in Immunology series focuses on the generation of an effective immune response to invading pathogens As B and T lymphocytes are characterized by the expression of antigen receptors that specifically recognize determinants expressed on pathogens, this volume discusses how antigen receptors are synthesized in B and T lymphocytes. Focuses on the generation of an effective immune response to invading pathogens Contains contributions from leading authorities Informs and updates on all the latest developments in the field of immunology
