The orientation of the Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGL locus on the chromosome 10 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
.
IGL gene names are according to the IMGT nomenclature [3].
Single arrows show genes whose polarity is opposite to that of the J-C-CLUSTER.
A, B, C refer to three distinct V-CLUSTER based on the IGLV gene subgroup content, by homology with the
Homo sapiens IGL locus [1, 2].
The Macaca mulatta IGL J-C-CLUSTER comprises 8 cassettes indicated by the numbers 1 to 7
(IGLJ1-IGLC1, IGLJ2-IGLC2, IGLJ2A-IGLC2A, IGLJ3-IGLC3, IGLJ4-IGLC4, IGLJ5-IGLC5, IGLJ6-IGLC6, IGLJ7-IGLC7 respectively).
