Immunoglobulin kappa locus also known as IGK@ is a region on human chromosome 2 that contains genes for the kappa (κ) light chains of antibodies (or immunoglobulins).In humans the κ chain is coded for by V (variable) J (joining) and C (constant) genes in this region. These genes undergo V(D)J recombination to generate a diverse repertoire of immunoglobulins.
