In the column 'Pseudogene', the number of pseudogenes with V-REGION in-frame and the number of pseudogenes with frameshift(s) are shown
separated by two dots, between parentheses.
* An asterisk indicates that the following genes have alleles with different functionalities:
FUNCTIONAL or ORF (IGHV3-72, IGHV3-48).
FUNCTIONAL or PSEUDOGENE (IGHV1-8, IGHV1-69, IGHV2-70, IGHV3-7, IGHV3-9, IGHV3-13, IGHV3-15, IGHV3-20, IGHV3-30, IGHV3-43, IGHV3-62, IGHV4-30-2, IGHV4-30-6, IGHV7-4-1)
1 IGHV1-24, IGHV3-25, IGHV3-29, IGHV3-30-22, IGHV3-30-33, IGHV3-32 genes are PSEUDOGENE with different alleles in frame or out-of-frame. Only the functionality of alleles *01 are taken into account in this table.
** Two asterisks indicate allelic polymorphisms by insertion/deletion which concern:
- an insertion of 2 genes between IGHV2-70 and IGHV1-69 (IGHV1-69D and IGHV2-70D)
- an insertion of 5 genes between IGHV4-61 and IGHV(II)-60-1 (IGHV3-60-6, IGHV4-60-5, IGHV(II)-60-4, IGHV3-60-3, IGHV4-60-2)
- an insertion of 1 gene between IGHV3-23 and IGHV(II)-22-1 (IGHV(III)-22-2)
- an insertion of 4 genes between IGHV3-19 and IGHV(II)-15-1 (IGHV1-18, IGHV1-17, IGHV(III)-16-1, IGHV3-16)
- an insertion of 4 genes between IGHV7-4-1 and IGHV(II)-4-4 (IGHV(II)-4-8, IGHV(II)-4-7, IGHV4-4-6, IGHV7-4-5)
These insertions are found in the Susie3 assembly (IMGT000078 accession number) compared to the Kamilah_GGO_v0 assembly (IMGT000074 accession number)
