Abstract excerpt
Background: We compared the immunoglobulin (IG) heavy chain (IGH) leader and FR1 primer sets to measure clone sizes and detect immunoglobulin heavy chain variable (IGHV) region somatic hypermutations (SHMs) in Korean patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We also analyzed IGH and immunoglobulin kappa (IGK) to identify Korean-specific IGs in CLL. Methods: Next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based gene...
