Summary: | International audience 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. |
