Pseudogenes in ribonuclease evolution: a source of new biomacromolecular function?

Bovine seminal ribonuclease (RNase) diverged from pancreatic RNase after a gene duplication ca. 35 million years ago. Members of the seminal RNase gene family evidently remained as unexpressed pseudogene for much of its evolutionary history. Between 5 and 10 million years ago, however, after the div...
