This would be consistent with the fact that αβTCR genes do not share the CDR AGY abundance and bias features with Ig genes (17, 18) (Figures S2C,D in Supplementary Material). If CDR AGY codons were preserved solely to enhance mutability, we would predict that AGY triplets would be equally frequent in all three reading frames. However, this was not the case. Even when only one AGY base was required to be contained within a CDR for inclusion in the non-coding CDR frame counts, AGY triplets in the Ser reading frame were nearly always more frequent than the combined frequencies of those in the two other reading frames (Figures 2A–C). This trend also held for AGC triplets contained within the context of the extremely mutable AGCT sequence (16, 36) (Figures S3A,B in Supplementary Material). Finally, the intrinsically mutable AGC triplet was consistently more frequent in the Ser reading frame than was the combined frequency for GCT triplets in all three reading frames (AGC on opposite strand), the only exception being the small mouse Vλ gene family (Figure S3C in Supplementary Material). These results argue that the abundance of germline CDR AGY codons was not solely due to an evolutionary selection pressure for high CDR mutability via SHM."}
