| Timing of Loss | "Manual curation of the putatively pseudogenized Gsdma in M. pentadactyla unraveled two missing exons, as observed in M. javanica, in addition to the loss of a splicing site and a single-nucleotide deletion, both in exon 8, confirming the predicted coding status" | 10.1007/s00239-023-10118-z |
| Phenotypic | "Gsdma is specifically expressed in human epidermis, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands and was recently shown to be required for epidermal cornification and skin regeneration" | 10.1007/s00239-023-10118-z |
