GBA3: a polymorphic pseudogene in humans that experienced repeated gene loss during mammalian evolution

The gene encoding the cytosolic β-glucosidase GBA3 shows pseudogenization due to a truncated allele (rs358231) that is polymorphic in humans. Since this enzyme is involved in the transformation of many plant β-glycosides, this particular case of gene loss may have been influenced by dietary adaptati...
