B cell activation in the germinal centre (GC) is accompanied by metabolic adaptation, but the functions of mitochondria remodelling during this process is unclear. Here the authors find that B cell-specific deficiency of Tfam, a transcription factor modulating mitochondria remodelling, impacts GC responses and induces aged immune features in B cells.
