immunoglobulin V(D)J recombination
id: GO:0033152
name: immunoglobulin V(D)J recombination
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The process in which immunoglobulin gene segments are recombined within a single locus utilizing the conserved heptamer and nonomer recombination signal sequences (RSS). For immunoglobulin heavy chains V, D, and J gene segments are joined, and for immunoglobulin light chains V and J gene segments are joined.
