HOPPSIGEN -- A database of human and mouse processed pseudogenes
What you can do:
Search for information on annotate processed pseudogenes in complete genomes.
Highlights:
- both mouse and human complete genomes from ENSEMBL were screened to find processed pseudogenes generated from functional genes with introns.
- The 2004 release contains annotated 5823 retroelements (5206 processed pseudogenes) in the human genome and 3934 (3428 processed pseudogenes) in the mouse genome.
- To facilitate the use of processed pseudogenes in studying genome structure and evolution, DNA sequences from processed pseudogenes, and their functional reverse transcribed homologs, are provided.
Keywords:
- processed pseudogenes
- pseudogenes
- human processed pseudogenes
