Unusual molecular evolution of an Adh pseudogene in Drosophila.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 May 1994

Sullivan D T, Starmer W T, Curtiss S W, Menotti-Raymond M, Yum J

Abstract excerpt

The Adh locus in Drosophila species which are members of the repleta group contains products of one or two duplication events. In all species examined to date one of the Adh genes is now a pseudogene, since mutations have rendered these genes incapable of being translated into a functional alcohol dehydrogenase. These pseudogenes contain introns in the standard Adh gene position; hence, their origin is not by...
