High impact information on rpl23

  • In the subfamily Panicoideae there is a deletion in which almost 1 kb of ancestral sequence, including the 3' end of the rpl23 pseudogene, has been replaced by a non-homologous 60-base sequence of unknown origin [1].
  • All seven species contain a pseudogene for rpl23 and evidence is presented that this pseudogene is being maintained by gene conversion with the functional gene [1].
