| Mutation Description | "For Awat1 numerous disrupting mutations, also noncoincident with those observed in Cetacea Awat1, were identified. Premature stop codonmutations in exon 2 of H. amphibius Mogat3 and exon 3 of Awat1 were further confirmed by SRA." | 10.1093/molbev/msz068 |
| Phenotypic | "In conclusion, our study supports convergent gene loss events in key molecular components responsible for skin sebum production in lineages reported to lack functioning SGs (Sebaceous Glands)." | 10.1093/molbev/msz068 |
