| Gastrokine 3 (Gkn3) encodes a novel, functionally distinct gastrokine overexpressed. Spread of the GKN3 stop allele W59X might have been selected for among non-Africans because of its effects on pre-neoplastic outcomes in the stomach. | A novel gastrokine, Gkn3, marks gastric atrophy and shows evidence of adaptive gene loss in humans.
