Abstract excerpt
The structure and genomic organization of V, J, and C segments in multiple gene clusters of the G class of catfish light (L) chain were determined to study evolutionary patterns of cluster divergence and regulatory function. The results showed that the organizational pattern is conserved; two VL segments reside in opposite transcriptional orientation to a pseudogene JL segment (psiJ), a functional JL segment, and...
