We have used a strategy based on PCR to amplify specifically the H pseudogenes from a sample of human genomic DNA. With this approach, three new H pseudogenes have been cloned and characterized by DNA sequence analysis. In addition, we have identified a new type of pseudogene, the size of which (700 bp) is caused by multiple detection events in the putative coding region.}, URL = {http://genome.cshlp.org/content/4/2/85.abstract}, eprint = {http://genome.cshlp.org/content/4/2/85.full.pdf+html}, journal = {Genome Research} }
