Phylogeny of the VH1 family germline gene family.
Dendrogram of all human VH1 family germline genes shows relatedness of DP-10, DP-88, and DP-14. The nucleotide sequences were aligned using the CLUSTAL alignment of the DNAstar (Madison, WI) MegALIGN application. The evolutionary distance between the different gene segments correlates with the length of the closed lines.
