Horse (Equus caballus) IGK locus on chromosome 15
- The horse (Equus caballus) IGK locus is on chromosome 15.
The orientation of the locus is forward (FWD).
- The horse (Equus caballus) IGK locus spans 850 kilobases (kb),
from 10 kb upstream of the most 5' gene in the locus, IGKV3-56 (P), to 10 kb
downstream of the most 3' gene in the locus, IGKC (F).
The Locus representation
encompasses 960 kb including the 5' borne PAX8 and the 3' borne RPIA.
- The horse (Equus caballus) IGK locus consists
of 66 IGKV genes belonging to 11 IGKV subgroups, 5 IGKJ genes and
and 1 IGKC gene.
- The IGKV genes span 806 kilobases (kb),
the IGKJ genes span 25 kilobases (kb) and
the IGKC genes span 12 kilobases (kb).
Bornes of the horse (Equus caballus) IGK locus
- PAX8 (5' borne) has been identified 130 kb upstream of
IGKV3-56, the most 5' gene in the locus.
- RPIA (3' borne) has been identified 33 kb downstream of
IGKC, the most 3' gene in the locus.
