Detecting transcription of ribosomal protein pseudogenes in diverse human tissues from RNA-seq data

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Ribosomal proteins (RPs) have about 2000 pseudogenes in the human genome. While anecdotal reports for RP pseudogene transcription exists, it is unclear to what extent these pseudogenes are transcribed. The RP pseudogene transcription...
