Formation of human long intergenic non-coding RNA genes, pseudogenes, and protein genes: Ancestral sequences are key players.
Pathways leading to formation of non-coding RNA and protein genes are varied and complex. We report finding a conserved repeat sequence present in human and chimpanzee genomes that appears to have originated from a common primate ancestor. This sequence is repeatedly copied in human chromosome 22 (c...
