“They found SNPs that regulate one gene (Ikaros) in different cell types, meaning they found different cis-regulatory regions for a single gene, that map to different pathways…. they used the cell-type specific information from ENCODE data.”

[News & Analysis] Cell Biology: NIH Effort Gambles on Mysterious Extracellular RNAs
A $17 million research program, announced this month by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, aims to determine whether RNA molecules are deliberately released by cells as hormonelike signals—and whether such extracellular RNAs can be harnessed for diagnosis and treatment of human diseases.

Human chimp increase in segmental duplications

September 1, 2013

QT:”
Our results suggest that the evolutionary properties of copy-number mutation differ significantly from other forms of genetic mutation and, in contrast to the hominid slowdown of single-base-pair mutations, there has been a genomic burst of duplication activity at this period during human evolution.
”
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v457/n7231/full/nature07744.html

This is a paper on increased rates of segmental duplications along the lineage to human and chimp.
This should have some implications for pseudogene numbers between organisms.
