Salivary gland lymphoma CDR3 sequences.

PCR products obtained from amplification with FW3-J_H1 or FW3-J_H2 primers were either directly sequenced or cloned and multiple clones sequenced as indicated on the right (additional identical CDR3 sequences were also obtained from the more full length V_H PCR products). Each sequenced is compared with the germline D and J segments showing the greatest homology where identity is indicated by a dash. The bolded entries in the deduced amino acid sequences from cases 1 to 5 highlight the conserved motifs at the V-D and D-J junctions referred to in the text.
