Figure 2

Relative locations of IGHV gene segments (red vertical bars) and DNA sequence tags (green vertical bars) in the polymorphic portion of Region II. Repeating blocks in the GRCh37 Assembly are shown as blue lines on the top. Polymorphic portion between the two assemblies, GRCh37 and HuRef, are represented by thick black strips. Gene segments with the closest sequences in the two assemblies are linked by light blue lines. Names of the undetectable tags are in green boxes and that for the non-polymorphic tag is in blue. Undetermined sequences are shown as hollow green rectangles. The right side of the region is IGHJ proximal.
