Abstract excerpt

Immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) genes in representative chondrichthyan fishes (sharks and skates) consist of independently functioning clusters, containing separate variable (VH), diversity (DH), and joining (JH) region elements and constant (CH) region exons. IgH loci have been characterized in...
