KIR2DL2/2DL3-E(35) alleles are functionally stronger than -Q(35) alleles. [PDF]

, 2016
KIR2DL2 and KIR2DL3 segregate as alleles of a single locus in the centromeric motif of the killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene family. Although KIR2DL2/L3 polymorphism is known to be associated with many human diseases and is an important

Molecular mechanisms of avian immunoglobulin gene diversification and prospect for industrial applications

Frontiers in Immunology
Poultry immunoglobulin genes undergo diversification through homologous recombination (HR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM). Most animals share a similar system in immunoglobulin diversification, with the rare exception that human and murine ...

Clinical significance of LAIR1 (CD305) as assessed by flow cytometry in a prospective series of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Haematologica, 2014
Most patients affected by chronic lymphocytic leukemia are diagnosed by flow cytometry. Several immunophenotypic markers have been identified as significant and independent prognostic variables, especially from retrospective cohorts.

IGHV mutational status of nodal marginal zone lymphoma by NGS reveals distinct pathogenic pathways with different prognostic implications [PDF]

, 2019
The precise B cell of origin and molecular pathogenesis of nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) remain poorly defined. To date, due to the rarity of NMZL, the vast majority of already-published studies have been conducted on a limited number of samples ...

Multiple myeloma shows no intra-disease clustering of immunoglobulin heavy chain genes

Haematologica, 2012
Background Characterization of the immunoglobulin gene repertoire has improved our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of lymphoid tumors. Early B-lymphocyte precursors of multiple myeloma are known to exist and might be susceptible to antigenic ...

Intra- and interchromosomal contact mapping reveals the Igh locus has extensive conformational heterogeneity and interacts with B-lineage genes

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: To produce a diverse antibody repertoire, immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) loci undergo large-scale alterations in structure to facilitate juxtaposition and recombination of spatially separated variable (VH), diversity (DH), and joining (JH ...

Molecular mimicry, genetic homology, and gene sharing proteomic “molecular fingerprints” using an EBV (Epstein-Barr virus)-derived microarray as a potential diagnostic method in autoimmune disease [PDF]

, 2018
EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) and other human DNA viruses are associated with autoimmune syndromes in epidemiologic studies. In this work, immunoglobulin G response to EBV-encoded proteins which share regions with human immune response proteins from the human

Multiple myeloma immunoglobulin lambda translocations portend poor prognosis

Nature Communications, 2019
Multiple myeloma is frequently characterised by translocation of genes next to the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus. In this study, the authors sequence a large cohort of high risk myeloma samples and find translocations of cMyc to the immunoglobulin ...

Germline polymorphisms and alternative splicing of human immunoglobulin light chain genes

iScience, 2021
Summary: Inference of germline polymorphisms in immunoglobulin genes from B cell receptor repertoires is complicated by somatic hypermutations, sequencing/PCR errors, and by varying length of reference alleles.

Intra- and Interspecies Analyses of the Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) Gene Family Reveal Independent Evolution in Primates and Rodents [PDF]

, 1989
Various rodent and primate DNAs exhibit a stronger intra- than interspecies cross-hybridization with probes derived from the N-terminal domain exons of human and rat carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-like genes.
