IMGT Database

The international ImMunoGeneTics database (IMGT) specializes in immunoglobulins (Ig), T-cell receptors (TCR), and the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of all vertebrate species. Comprising annotated sequences and alignment tables, IMGT includes two databases: LIGM-DB contains more than 19,000 Ig and TCR sequences from 78 species, and MHC/HLA-DB contains alignment tables for Class I and Class II human leucocyte antigens.
