(A) Occurrences of processed pseudogenes among human functional genes. Human genes that have the same number of processed pseudogenes are grouped together. For each group, the number of pseudogenes (X-axis) and the size of the group (Y-axis) are plotted together. For instance, as seen in the plot, 2299 human genes have between one and five processed pseudogenes. (B) Classification of the processed pseudogenes into GO functional categories. “Unclassified” are those pseudogenes that arose from functional genes that were not yet assigned to a GO category. Less populated categories are lumped together into “Others.”
