nomenclature changes

th sisi a singleton gene in X. laevis. The gene symbol was previously changed from LOC779021 to XB5865341.

This gene was previously tagged as uncharacterized, yet the protein where named. It has been named iglv5-39, immunoglobulin lambda variable 5-39 based on the refSeq name for the Xenopus protein, following the human protein coding gene name and symbol.

This is supported by sequence aligment to orthologous groups in EggNog5.0, which characterizes it as a c-type or V-type immunoglobulin.

annotation notes

22JULY2025 This is an uncharacterized, protein coding gene, however the gene model was incorrectly placed on the S column- the gene is on Chromosome 1L and thus model has been moved from S:XB-GENE-5865366 to L:XB-GENE-17339766.
