Similarities among hypervariable segments of immunoglobulin chains.

RESUMO
A human lambdaV (Mcg) and a human lambdaII (Vil) myeloma protein have identical sequences in their first hypervariable segments although they differ at 21 positions throughout the variable region. If a different structural gene is responsible for each subgroup, the findings favor insertion of information for the hypervariable or complementarity-determining segments.
