Gene-Pseudogene Inversions as a Hidden Source of Missing Heritability
2025-10-07
Abstract excerpt
Historically defined as non–functional copies of coding genes, pseudogenes are an abundant yet underexplored element in the human genome, despite growing evidence linking them to human diseases. From a genome wide screen, we identified 411 gene/pseudogene pairs located in opposite orientation, an arrangement which is permissive for the occurrence of inversions, including 46 genes already associated with human dise...
