The sequence of two human β-tubulin pseudogenes is described. One contains an intervening sequence but lacks sequences encoding the 55 N-terminal amino acids of the polypeptide chain. A second has no introns but has a polyadenylate signal and an oligoadenylate tract at its 3′ end, and it is flanked by a short direct repeat. These sequences have arisen by different mechanisms, including one that probably involves reverse transcription of a processed messenger RNA and reintegration of the complementary DNA copy into the genome.
