Abstract
A porcine glucosephosphate isomerase-processed pseudogene has been iso lated and sequenced. The pseudogene has several base substitutions as well as an insertion and deletions, and is 83% homologous to the corre sponding cDNA. It contains an intervening sequence of 565 bp, is trunc ated at the 3' end, and is flanked by direct repeats of seven nucleoti des. Fluorescent in situ hybridization to porcine metaphase chromosome s localized the processed pseudogene to Chromosome (Chr) 1q1.6-1.7. A (GT)14(AT)15 microsatellite was detected close to the processed pseudo gene.
