Genetic diversity at the hinge region of the unique immunoglobulin heavy gamma (IGHG) gene in leporids (Oryctolagus, Sylvilagus and Lepus).

International journal of immunogenetics - 1 Jun 2006

Esteves P J, Carmo C, Godinho R, van der Loo W

Abstract excerpt

Unlike other species, European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) possesses only one immunoglobulin gamma class. Allelic diversity at the Ig (immunoglobulin) gamma constant region encoded by the unique IGHG (immunoglobulin heavy gamma) gene is moreover much reduced. In the European rabbit, the genetic variation at IGGH hinge region is limited to a single nucleotide substitution, which causes a Met-Thr interchange at...
