Back to basics: Immunoglobulin germline reference sequences enable investigations and reveal insights into bat-specific immunity
2025-04-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> We generated a highly-contiguous, annotated genome of the Jamaican fruit bat, Artibeus jamaicensis, including annotated germline immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) and light chain (IGL) loci to understand bat B cell receptor repertoires. The bat germline shares many structures and features described in human immunoglobulin loci. However, some features are unique to A. jamaicensis , including an e...
