Nucleotide sequences of variable regions of new λ light chains expressed in HTD8 subclones. Nucleotide sequences of the variable regions of the light chains expressed in HTD8 subclones (D8-1, D8-2, D8-3, and D8-4) are shown in a 5′ to 3′ direction. VLD8-1, VLD8-2, VLD8-3, and VLD8-4 represents the λ light chain genes expressed by the subclones of HTD8. Sequences are compared with the corresponding germ-line Vλ (HUMIGL8V, HSIGLV36, and V1-20) and Jλ2/3 sequences. Designations in brackets indicate their corresponding Vλ gene family. Dashes sequence identity with the germline genes. Dots indicate where gaps have been introduced to maximize homology.
