Identification and analysis of unitary pseudogenes: historic and contemporary gene losses in humans and other primates.

Genome biology | 2010

Unitary pseudogenes are a class of unprocessed pseudogenes without functioning counterparts in the genome. They constitute only a small fraction of annotated pseudogenes in the human genome. However, as they represent distinct functional losses over time, they shed light on the unique features of humans in primate evolution.
