| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pseudogenes have been thought to be non-functional and been neglected for long time. However, the deletion and amplification of special pseudogenes are reported recently, suggesting that pseudogenes are functional. Using NGS analysis, we found relation between the expression of pseudogenes and their ancestral genes.
