High-Resolution Copy-Number Variation Map Reflects Human Olfactory Receptor Diversity and Evolution

Olfactory receptors (ORs), which are involved in odorant recognition, form the largest mammalian protein superfamily. The genomic content of OR genes is considerably reduced in humans, as reflected by the relatively small repertoire size and the high fraction (∼55%) of human pseudogenes. Since sever...
