A Survey of Functional Retroposed Genes: H. sapiens, M. musculus, D. melanogaster, and C. elegans

Retrogenes are functional genes that are created through retroposition, whereby mature mRNA is reverse-transcribed and re-integrated into the genome. In this study, the following objectives were accomplished: (i) intrachromosomal- and interchromosomal-retroposed genes were located in H. sapiens, (ii...
