Type Excerpt DOI
Mutation Description "We found that BDH1 exhibits several inactivating mutations and evolved under relaxed selection in cetaceans and pteropodids (Figure 1—figure supplement 5, Supplementary file 2)." 10.7554/eLife.38906

Curator Observations

Cetaceans analyzed in this work presented a conserved mutation pattern with the shared deletion of exon 1 and a premature stop do codon in exon 2.
