Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGK locus on chromosome 13
- The Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGK locus is on
chromosome 13. The orientation of the locus is forward (FWD).
- The Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGK locus spans 1357 kilobases (kb),
from 10 kb upstream of the most 5' gene in the locus, IGKV2-105 (P), to 10 kb
downstream of the most 3' gene in the locus, IGKC (F).
The Locus representation
encompasses 1600 kb including the 5' borne PAX8 and the 3' borne RPIA.
- The Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGK locus consists
of 110 IGKV genes (+ 28 non localised) belonging to 7 IGKV subgroups and 1 IGKV clan, 5 IGKJ genes
and 1 IGKC gene.
- The IGKV genes span 1331 kilobases (kb),
the IGKJ genes span 14 kilobases (kb) and
the IGKC gene spans 12 kilobases (kb).
Bornes of the Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGK locus
- PAX8 (5' borne) has been identified 335 kb upstream of
IGKV2-105, the most 5' gene in the locus.
- RPIA (3' borne) has been identified 94 kb downstream of
IGKC, the most 3' gene in the locus.
