Correspondence between IMGT gene names and clone names is available in Gene tables: human (Homo sapiens)
All the IMGT human IG and TR gene name have been approved by the HUGO Nomenclature Commitee in 1999 and entered in the Genome Database and into Entrez Gene at NCBI, USA.
Human IGHD segments are listed from 5' (top of the table) to 3' (bottom of the table).
