The orientation of the Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) IGL locus on 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.
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).
