Locus representation Channel catfish (<em>Ictalurus punctatus</em>) IGH locus

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 .

V Not Sequenced not sequenced genes.

There are two clusters containing IGHV, IGHD, IGHJ and IGHC (IGHM and IGHD) genes (Greg Warr, personnal communication 13/06/2002).
The IGHV genes belong to seven different subgroups.
The IGHV gene number and organization are not known but the average distance between genes is about 3 kb.
