Dog (Canis lupus familiaris) IGH locus on chromosome 8

The orientation of the dog (Canis lupus familiaris) IGH locus on the chromosome 8 is reverse (REV).

Legend:
Colors are according to IMGT color menu for genes.
The boxes representing the genes are not to scale. Exons are not shown.
A double slash // indicates a gap in genome assembly. Distances in bp (base pair) or in kb (kilobase) associated with a double slash are taken into account in the length of the lines and included in the numbers displayed at the right end of the lines.
A dotted line ... indicates the distance in kb (kilobase) between the locus and its bornes (5' borne and the most 5' gene in the locus and/or 3' borne and the most 3' gene in the locus) on the top and bottom lines, respectively. These distances are not represented at scale and/or are not included in IMGT-LOCUS-UNIT and may not be included in the numbers displayed at the right ends of these two lines .

IGH gene names are according to the IMGT nomenclature [2].
Single arrows show genes whose polarity is opposite to that of the D-J-C-CLUSTER comprising IGHD (D1 to D6)-IGHJ (J1 to J6)-IGHC (IGHM-IGHD-IGHE-IGHA).
