Bovine (Bos taurus) IGK locus on chromosome 11
- The bovine (Bos taurus) IGK locus is on chromosome 11.
The orientation of the locus is forward (FWD).
- The bovine (Bos taurus) IGK locus spans 214 kilobases (kb),
from 10 kb upstream of the most 5' gene in the locus, IGKV1-25 (P), to 10 kb
downstream of the most 3' gene in the locus, IGKC (F).
The Locus representation
encompasses 400 kb including the 5' borne PAX8 and the 3' borne RPIA.
- The bovine (Bos taurus) IGK locus consists of 25
IGKV genes belonging to 5 IGKV subgroups, 5 IGKJ genes
and 1 IGKC gene.
- The IGKV genes span 194
kilobases (kb), the IGKJ genes span 7436
bases (b) and the IGKC genes span 12
kilobases (kb).
Bornes of the bovine (Bos taurus) IGK locus
- PAX8 (5' borne) has been identified 130 kb upstream of
IGKV1-25, the most 5' gene in the locus.
- RPIA (3' borne) has been identified 46 kb downstream of
IGKC, the most 3' gene in the locus.
