Newly evolved introns in human retrogenes provide novel insights into their evolutionary roles

BACKGROUND: Retrogenes generally do not contain introns. However, in some instances, retrogenes may recruit internal exonic sequences as introns, which is known as intronization. A retrogene that undergoes intronization is a good model with which to investigate the origin of introns. Nevertheless, p...
