IMGT Collier de Perles graphical 2D representation of 43RCA (Figure 5a: VH fragment, Figure 5b: light chain). IMGT Colliers de Perles representations are displayed according to the IMGT unique numbering. Black squares indicate differences from the human genes most similar to 43RCA, and 43RCA. Positions of hydrophobic amino acids (hydropathy index with positive value, i.e. I, V, L, F, C, M, A) and tryptophan (W) are shown in blue. All proline (P) residues are shown in yellow. The CDR-IMGT sequences are limited by amino acids shown in squares (anchor positions), which belong to the neighbouring FR-IMGT. Hatched circles correspond to missing positions according to the IMGT unique numbering. For the VH domain, CDR1-IMGT is shown in red, CDR2-IMGT in orange and CDR3-IMGT in purple. For the V-KAPPA domain, CDR1-IMGT is shown in blue, CDR2-IMGT in green and CDR3-IMGT in turquoise.
