A status diagram of the human OR repertoire. Among the 851 human OR sequences in the reference human genome, 464 were originally annotated as pseudogenes (P) and 387 as intact genes (I). Our study suggests that 218 (56%) of these intact ORs are segregating pseudogenes (S, originating from stop-SNPs and frame-disrupting indels), and 27 (6.9%) have a CNV deletion allele (D). Additionally, 26 (5.6%) of the OR pseudogenes are “resurrected (R)”, by showing an intact allele in some individuals.
