Assessing the genomic evidence for conserved transcribed pseudogenes under selection

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p><it>Transcribed pseudogenes </it>are copies of protein-coding genes that have accumulated indicators of coding-sequence decay (such as frameshifts and premature stop codons), but nonetheless remain transcribed. Recent exp...
