CONT

Pseudogenes are diverse, easy to miss, and complex to annotate. They fall into two rough classes: those that arose from genomic duplication and those that arose from retrotranscription of mRNA. The first class is important for understanding chromosomal evolution; the second for a snapshot in time of a gene's evolution. Pseudogenes are part of the extended superfamily of a gene.
