(A) The human CYP2G2P pseudogene. The nine exons are shown, one per line, with the intron phase indicated in parenthese. The * are stop codons. Lower-case letters are the parts of the pseudogene missed in the Genscan prediction shown in panel B. (B) Genscan prediction of the CYP2G2P pseudogene taken from the University of California Santa Cruz Genome browser. The gene is shown in the same format as in Panel A, with blank space for the missed regions. (C) Alignments of the two regions left out of the Genscan prediction against the mouse CYP2G1 functional gene.
