Goat (Capra hircus) IGK locus on chromosome 11
- The goat (Capra hircus) IGK locus is on
chromosome 11.
The orientation of the locus is forward (FWD).
- The goat (Capra hircus) IGK locus spans 164 kilobases (kb),
from 10 kb upstream of the most 5' gene in the locus, IGKV1-21 (P), to 10 kb
downstream of the most 3' gene in the locus, IGKC (F).
The Locus representation
encompasses 200 kb including the 3' borne RPIA.
- The goat (Capra hircus) IGK locus consists
of 21 IGKV genes (5 genes are functional, 3 genes are ORF and 13 genes are pseudogenes) belonging to 6 IGKV subgroups,
4 IGKJ genes (1 gene is functional and 3 genes are ORF) belonging to 4 IGKJ set and
1 IGKC gene (functional) [1].
- The IGKV genes span 408 kilobases (kb), the IGKJ genes span 5360 bases (b) and
the IGKC genes span 6374 bases (b).
Bornes of the goat (Capra hircus) IGK locus
- RPIA (3' borne) has been identified 59 kb downstream of
IGKC, the most 3' gene in the locus.
