Analysis of Vα-Jα coding, Vα-Jα signal, and Jα-Jα hybrid junctions shows that Jα-Jα hybrids have processing characteristics similar to Vα-Jα coding junctions. (A) Frequency of nucleotide deletions flanking the RSS site of cleavage in coding Vα-Jα junctions (blue line), signal Vα-Jα junctions (black line), and hybrid Jα-Jα junctions (purple line). (B) Length of nontemplated bases in coding Vα-Jα junctions (blue line), signal Vα-Jα junctions (black line), and hybrid Jα-Jα junctions (purple line).
