surface Ig on plasma cells

[darren at indy.bio.uts.edu.au]

A question I am almost too embarrassed to ask- text books say that once a B
cell becomes a plasmea cell, all Ab is secreted only, with none remaining as
a surface membrane-bound antigen receptor. Is that correct? No exceptions to
the dogma?

Ta, Darren
