An update on the characterization of immunoglobulin loci in Ambystoma mexicanum
This study confirms our previous findings and provides an example of intraspecies structural variation in adaptive immune receptor loci. It underscores the importance of well-assembled genomes and establishes the current <i>A. mexicanum</i> reference as a valuable resource for investigating immune evolution and function in axolotls and other vertebrates.
