Western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) IGL locus on chromosome 22

The Western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) IGL locus is on chromosome 22. The orientation of the locus is forward (FDW).
The Western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) IGL locus spans 838 kilobases (kb), from 10 kb upstream the most 5' gene in the locus, IGLV(I)-70-1 (P), to 10 kb upstream of the most 3' gene in the locus, IGLC7 (F). The Locus representation encompasses 1000 kb including the 5' borne TOP3B and the 3' borne RSPH14.
The Western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) IGL locus consists of 90 genes : 76 IGLV genes belonging to 11 subgroups, 7 IGLJ genes belonging to 7 sets and 7 IGLC genes .
The IGLV genes span 790 kb, the IGLJ genes span 24 kb and the IGLC gene spans 24 kb.

TOP3B (5' borne) has been identified 44 kb upstream of IGLV(I)-70-1, the most 5' gene in the locus.
RSPH14 (3' borne) has been identified 135 kb downstream of IGLC7, the most 3' gene in the locus.
