"+" or "-" indicates if the gene sequences have been found (+) or not been found (-) rearranged (R), transcribed (T) and/or translated into protein (Pr). Arbitrarily that information is shown on the first line of each gene when the data have been confirmed by several studies.

Functionality is shown between parentheses, (F) and (P), when the accession number refers to rearranged genomic DNA or cDNA and the corresponding germline gene has not yet been isolated.
Functionality is shown between brackets, [F] and [P], when the accession number refers to genomic DNA, but not known as being germline or rearranged.

IMGT notes:
  1. (1) The cluster IGLV1-IGLJ3-IGLC3-IGLJ1-IGLC1 is deleted in B6.lambdaSEG and probably also in the lost strain SPE [2].
  2. (2) M17529 was assigned to the IGLV2 gene [2].
  3. (3) Genes belonging to the IGLV3 subgroup may vary from 0 to 3 depending from the Mus spretus strains as deduced from RFLP analysis. Mus spretus IGLV3 subgroup gene names are by homology with Mus musculus genes [2].
  4. (4) Partial V-REGION: partial FR1-IMGT (AA 1 to 4 are absent) and partial FR3-IMGT (AA 99 to 104 are absent).
