Mutation Description "Together, most of these metabolic steps are controlled by sperm-restricted gene orthologs, including (...) a pyruvate specific transporter, Mpc1l; (...) We examined each gene ortholog sequence in various mammal species and found ORF-disrupting mutations or exon-loss events in most cetacean species (Figure 2 ; figshare link in Key resources table)." 10.1016/j.cub.2021.05.062
