Intrinsic properties of human germinal-center B cells set antigen-affinity thresholds

Protective antibody responses to vaccination or infection depend on affinity maturation, a process by which high-affinity germinal center (GC) B cells are selected based on their ability to bind, gather and present antigen to T follicular helper (Tfh) cells. Here we show that human GC B cells have i...
