Italic text in bold refers to differences in the location or amino acid (aa) sequence of N-gly sites, referred to as N-gly motif, within the major clone across temporal samples. The major clone was determined by the highest count number. The multiple values in patient 2 and 4 relate to the multiple N-gly sites observed. The majority of subclones across patients and disease events retain the N-gly site of the major clones (P < .0001). AA, amino acid. Numbers given under the heading “AA position of N-gly site” refer to the position of the middle AA making up the N-gly site, according to IMGT numeration of the variable region.
