Ig heavy chain V-III region VH26 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IGHV@ gene.[1][2][3]
IGHV is the immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region genes; in B-cell neoplasms like chronic lymphocytic leukemia, mutations of IGHV are associated with better responses to some treatments and with prolonged survival.[4]
