[In particular, older and more recent studies have demonstrated that MCL is characterized by a highly distinctive immunoglobulin gene repertoire with remarkable predominance of the IGHV3-21 and IGHV4-34 genes; restricted associations of IGHV, IGHD and IGHJ genes, culminating in the creation of quasi-identical (stereotyped) heavy complementarity-determining region 3 sequences in roughly 10% of cases; and, very precisely targeted and, probably, functionally driven somatic hypermutation, ranging from minimal (in most cases) to pronounced.].
