Prototypes, labels and patterns. A. V-GENE, D-GENE and J-GENE prototypes with labels and corresponding patterns. B. Labels for each prototype and gene unit. A L-V-GENE-UNIT is described with 24 labels (22 specific and 2 shared ones). A D-GENE-UNIT is described with 10 labels (all specific). A J-GENE-UNIT is described with 8 labels (7 specific labels, J-PHE and J-TRP being mutually exclusive and 1 shared one). Three additional labels, 1 specific and 2 common ones (5'UTR and 3'UTR), allow to describe the V-GENE (27 labels), D-GENE (13 labels) and J-GENE (11 labels). Shared and common labels are shown in black circle. Labels in red are conserved motifs.
