Accessory cell: Cell required for, but not actually mediating, a specific immune response. Often used to describe antigen-presenting cells (APC; see below).
Affinity: A measure of the binding constant of a single antigen combining site with a monovalent antigenic determinant.
Agglutination: The aggregation of particulate antigen by antibodies. Agglutination applies to red blood cells as well as to bacteria and inert particles covered with antigen.
Allelic: Relating to one of a series of two or more alternate forms of a gene that occupy the same position or locus on a specific chromosome.
Allelic exclusion: The ability of heterozygous lymphoid cells to produce only one allelic form...

(+)sense RNA (plus-sense RNA): A virus with a single-stranded RNA genome of the same polarity ('sense') as mRNA.
(-)sense RNA (minus-sense RNA): A virus with a single-stranded RNA genome of the opposite polarity ('sense') as mRNA.
Abortive Infection: When a virus infects a cell (or host), but cannot complete the full replication cycle, i.e. a non-productive infection.
