| 41. | Then how was this pseudogene resurrected?
|
| 42. | Humans have a pseudogene for chymosin that does not generate a protein, found on chromosome 1.
|
| 43. | It has been found that humans and ruminants have the WAP gene in their genome as pseudogene.
|
| 44. | This similarity has caused some difficulty in determining whether cloned sequences represent the gene or the pseudogene.
|
| 45. | A pseudogene that is thought to be related to this gene has been identified on chromosome 10.
|
| 46. | Pseudogene sequences appear to accumulate mutations more rapidly than coding sequences due to a loss of selective pressure.
|
| 47. | For example, amplification of a gene by PCR may simultaneously amplify a pseudogene that shares similar sequences.
|
| 48. | A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 5 . [ provided by RefSeq, May 2010 ].
|
| 49. | A pseudogene of this gene is located 4 kb downstream in the same orientation, on the same chromosome.
|
| 50. | Two similar genes are located nearby on chromosome 7q22.1 and a pseudogene is found on chromosome 7p13.
