*Six hundred and seventy-five duplicated mouse gene sequences were aligned to the June 2002 human genome assembly by BLAST (with an initial expected value cutoff of <10-10). The best aligned human genes were subsequently used for reciprocal BLAST alignments (against the mouse genome sequence) to establish a putative orthologous relationship between the mouse and human gene pairs. Using results from our human genome duplication analysis [9,37], we examined regions of the human genome where the human genes are involved in recent segmental duplication. †Italics represents genes that are entirely within a duplication in the mouse genome.
