High-throughput sequencing technologies brought a renewed interest for immune repertoires. Fish Ab and B cell repertoires are no exception, and their comprehensive analysis can both provide new insights into poorly understood immune mechanisms, and identify markers of protection after vaccination. However, the lack of genomic description and standardized nomenclature of IG genes hampers accurate annotation of Ig mRNA deep sequencing data. Complete genome sequences of Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout (Swanson line) recently allowed us to establish a comprehensive and coherent annotation of Salmonid IGH genes following IMGT standards. Here we analyzed the IGHV, D, and J genes from the newly released genome of a second rainbow trout line (Arlee). We confirmed the validity of salmonid IGHV subgroups, and extended the description of the rainbow trout IGH gene repertoire with novel sequences, while keeping nomenclature continuity. This work provides an important resource for annotation of high-throughput Ab repertoire sequencing data.
高通量测序技术重新引发了人们对免疫组库的兴趣。鱼类抗体和B细胞免疫组库也不例外,对它们进行全面分析既能为了解甚少的免疫机制提供新见解,又能识别疫苗接种后的保护标志物。然而,免疫球蛋白(IG)基因缺乏基因组描述和标准化命名法,阻碍了对Ig mRNA深度测序数据的准确注释。大西洋鲑和虹鳟(斯旺森品系)的完整基因组序列最近使我们能够按照国际免疫基因组信息系统(IMGT)标准对鲑科鱼类IGH基因进行全面且连贯的注释。在此,我们分析了来自第二个虹鳟品系(阿利)新发布基因组的IGHV、D和J基因。我们证实了鲑科鱼类IGHV亚组的有效性,并用新序列扩展了虹鳟IGH基因库的描述,同时保持命名的连续性。这项工作为高通量抗体组库测序数据的注释提供了重要资源。
