Lower Somatic Mutation Levels in the λ Light-Chain Repertoires with Chronic HBV Infection

Figure 3

The somatic hypermutation level in the light-chain repertoires. (a) The proportion of sequences with more than 90% V gene identity as the germline genes from the IMGT database. (b) The frequencies of amino acid mutations in CDR1 and CDR2 regions of the IgL repertoires. (c) The frequencies of amino acid mutations in CDR1 and CDR2 regions of the IgK repertoires.
