| Other | "Yet, in T. latirostris IL20, the single nucleotide insertion retrieved in the last exon is insufficient evidence to infer gene loss in this species. (...) Thus, the coding status of T. latirostris IL20 remains to be clarified (Fig. 2b and Supplementary Material 3)." | 10.1007/s00251-018-1071-5 |
Curator Observations
Doubts about the coding status of this gene in this species. One unique ORF-disrupting mutation at the end of the gene leads to uncertainty in how functional is IL20 in this species.
