41. Then how was this pseudogene resurrected? 42. Humans have a pseudogene for chymosin that does not generate a protein, found on chromosome 1. 43. It has been found that humans and ruminants have the WAP gene in their genome as pseudogene . 44. This similarity has caused some difficulty in determining whether cloned sequences represent the gene or the pseudogene . 45. A pseudogene that is thought to be related to this gene has been identified on chromosome 10. 46. Pseudogene sequences appear to accumulate mutations more rapidly than coding sequences due to a loss of selective pressure.47. For example, amplification of a gene by PCR may simultaneously amplify a pseudogene that shares similar sequences. 48. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 5 . [ provided by RefSeq, May 2010 ]. 49. A pseudogene of this gene is located 4 kb downstream in the same orientation, on the same chromosome. 50. Two similar genes are located nearby on chromosome 7q22.1 and a pseudogene is found on chromosome 7p13.
