Abstract excerpt
The genes for glucocerebrosidase and metaxin, both located on chromosome 1q21, each have a highly homologous pseudogene sequence nearby. We describe a novel recombinant allele consisting of a duplication of the glucocerebrosidase pseudogene and a fusion between the metaxin gene and its pseudogene, resulting from a crossover between metaxin and pseudometaxin in the region downstream of the glucocerebrosidase gene....
