Table 3.

Number of alleles with count of new mutating positions as compared to the existing databases.

Zero 279 312 85 95 68 91
One 102 72 85 78 102 93

Complete sequence includes leader sequence and the V region for all the V genes. This is important to realize that 98 IGHV, 9 IGKV and 35 IGLV alleles are partial and do not contain the leader sequence.
