Figure 6From: From IMGT-ONTOLOGY to IMGT/LIGMotif: the IMGT® standardized approach for immunoglobulin and T cell receptor gene identification and description in large genomic sequencesDelimitation of motifs using conserved motifs as anchors. The delimitation of motifs using conserved motifs as anchors is used for the description of a V-GENE-UNIT (A), D-GENE-UNIT (B) and J-GENE-UNIT (C). This approach is necessary and sufficient for the description of a D-GENE-UNIT or that of a J-GENE-UNIT. The description of a V-GENE-UNIT requires two additional steps: the delimitation of the V-REGION and of its constitutive regions and conserved motifs by IMGT/V-QUEST [32], and the delimitation of L-PART2.Back to article page
