Not all interspersed duplicate genes are generated by retrotransposition.
In the ORF1 protein, residues critical for retrotransposition include the following conserved blocks of amino acids: REKG (235-238), ARR (residues 260-262), and YPAKLS (282-287) [ 14].
As inverted elements are found 8% of the time in 3' intact elements, 462 twice-inverted elements were predicted to occur if such events are permitted (that is, 8% of 8% of the time if the two inversions can occur independently more than once during the same retrotransposition event).
At least one novel gene, the CG2222 -like gene D. willistoni , is likely to have originated from a retrotransposition event as this gene lacks introns while its closest homolog, found on a different chromosome arm in the D. melanogaster genome, has two introns.
2003) investigated the retrotransposition (since the existence of a human–mouse common ancestor) of one of the two autosomal copies of the CDYL gene to Y chromosome (forming CDY ). In the mouse, both Cdyl genes produce two distinct transcripts, one of which is expressed ubiquitously while the other is testis-specific.
