Transcribed processed pseudogenes in the human genome: an intermediate form of expressed retrosequence lacking protein-coding ability
Pseudogenes, in the case of protein-coding genes, are gene copies that have lost the ability to code for a protein; they are typically identified through annotation of disabled, decayed or incomplete protein-coding sequences. Processed pseudogenes (PΨgs) are made through mRNA retrotransposition. The...
