Nomenclature of the human immunoglobulin genes.

Current protocols in immunology - 1 May 2001

Lefranc Marie-Paule

Abstract excerpt

The human immunoglobulins (Ig) are the products of three unlinked sets of genes: the immunoglobulin heavy (IGH), the immunoglobulin kappa (IGK), and the immunoglobulin lambda (IGL) genes, localized on chromosome 14 (14q32.33), 2 (2p12), and 22 (22q11.2), respectively. This appendix presents tabulated lists of the human immunoglobulin heavy, kappa, and lambda genes named in accordance with the International...
