Abstract excerpt
There are at least 63 tandemly arranged human T-cell receptor (Tcr) beta-chain variable region (BV) gene segments, which have presumably arisen by repeated gene duplication events. The 5'-most half of the TCRBV gene loci is particularly complex in organization due to the presence of multiple interspersed members of the largest BV subfamilies, BV5, BV6, and BV13. Polymorphism and linkage relationships among these...
