The human proteins are called '''igkv3-20– immunoglobulin kappa variable 3-20''', and we have provisionally adopted this gene name. As there is some variability in subfamilies, I have provisionally added the 'like' suffix, and as several genes exist, I've given them serial numbers, this gene being 6.

Name gene name and symbol changed from XB5758397 to igkv3-20l6, immunoglobulin kappa variable 3-20 like 6.

This gene was named following alignment of the X. tropicalis and X. laevis proteins to precalculated orthology groups in the DIOPT program, EggNogg. It aligned to 900+ other proteins from ~68 species (including to other Xenopus tropicalis proteins) which are named in the IGKV family with high confidence.

The human proteins are called igkv3-20– immunoglobulin kappa variable 3-20, and we have provisionally adopted this gene name. As there is some variability in subfamilies, I have provisionally added the 'like' suffix, and as several genes exist, I've given them serial numbers, this gene being 6.

summary for human IGKV3-20 from AGR and NCBI

Involved in antibacterial humoral response and glomerular filtration. Located in extracellular space. Part of monomeric IgA immunoglobulin complex; pentameric IgM immunoglobulin complex; and secretory IgA immunoglobulin complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
