a product which is deleterious in
oversupply, such duplication could be deleterious, preserving the 
overlapping loci.

Also, I seem to remember at least one pair of overlapping in-frame genes
whose protein products must share an identical sequence to interact correctly,
and which are protected by being overlapping from mutations which would
disrupt their interaction.  I can't remember what genes or in what organism.
Can anyone help me out with this?
