Figure 1. Evolution and life cycle of an n-globin pseudogene microsatellite locus. (A) Evolutionary time estimate for the species emergence and corresponding change in the n-globin pseudogene microsatellite locus, illustrating different stages of life cycle and predicting future steps. (B) Total percentage of time required for each stage in life cycle of n-globin pseudogene microsatellite locus as based on complete predicted life cycle in Panel A. Red star indicates the present humans on the evolution time scale and, that corresponds to the ~0.2 Myr. Hg19 genomic coordinates for the sequence: Chr11:5263798:5263832, positive strand.
