IUIS NOM IMGT-NC Reports

Reports is an initiative of the IUIS Nomenclature Sub-Committee for immunoglobulins (IG), T cell receptors (TR) and major histocompatibility (MH) (IG/TR/MH), allowing scientists to submit IMGT names for new IG and TR variable (V), diversity (D), joining (J) and constant (C) genes and alleles to the IUIS Sub-Committee for approval, based on the IMGT Scientific chart rules and the IMGT-ONTOLOGY concepts of classification (CLASSIFICATION axiom).
