| Functional | "Suprabasal epidermis keratin" | 10.1016/j.cub.2021.02.057 |
| Mutation Description | "Complete deletion of this gene in odontocetes obscures whether 111-779D occurred in the common ancestor of Cetacea with subsequent overprinting in Odontoceti or if this gene was independently inactivated in mysticetes and odontocetes. Inactivation dates (Table 2) suggest that this gene was inactivated in the common ancestor of Cetacea." | 10.1016/j.cub.2021.02.057 |
| Timing of Loss | "53.92 MA" | 10.1016/j.cub.2021.02.057 |
