What Does CSR Stand For?

CSR stands for Class Switch Recombination

Class Switch Recombination (CSR) is a biological process in which B cells alter the class of antibody they produce, transitioning from one immunoglobulin isotype to another, such as from IgM to IgG, IgA, or IgE. This process enhances the immune response by enabling antibodies to better match the type of pathogen encountered, improving their effectiveness in neutralizing threats. CSR is crucial for generating long-lasting immunity and is regulated by various cellular signals and enzymes, including activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID).
