Correspondence between IMGT gene names and clone names is available in Gene tables: bovine (Bos taurus)

Correspondence between the different gene nomenclatures

Bovine IGHJ genes are listed from 5' (top of the table) to 3' (bottom of the table).

IMGT notes:
  1. (1) Bos taurus IGHJ genes owing to their organization, different from that of Homo sapiens IGHJ genes [3-4], are designated by a number for the cluster (1 or 2), followed by an hyphen and a number for the localization (1 to 6) from 5' to 3' in each cluster.
