| Functional | "Seven of these genes are enamel specific (ACP4, AMBN, AMELX, AMTN, ENAM, KLK4, MMP20) and two are related to dentin/tooth formation (...)." | 10.1016/j.ympev.2022.107463 |
| Mutation Description | "Of the seven enamel genes, three (ACP4, KLK4, MMP20) were found to have inactivating mutations that are shared by all mysticetes. ACP4 has a 1-bp deletion in exon 4; KLK4 has a 1-bp deletion in exon 3; and MMP20 has a SINE insertion in exon 2." | 10.1016/j.ympev.2022.107463 |
