IMGT, the international ImMunoGeneTics database, announces:
- protein displays of human immunoglobulin and T cell receptor variable
region, IMGT description of mutations and allele alignments (IMGT NEWS -
Août 1997),
- the first 3D representations of antibody and T cell receptor variable
regions, based on the IMGT unique numbering defined by Marie-Paule Lefranc
(IMGT NEWS - Mars 1997),
- IMGT/DNAPLOT for the analysis of human immunoglobulin and T cell receptor
rearranged sequences and for the subgroup identification of the mouse IGHV
sequences.
