Type Excerpt DOI
Mutation Description "Gene annotation of GBA3 in Cetacea identified various ORF damaging mutations across exons 3, 4 and 5 (Fig. 1)." 10.1038/s41598-020-68106-y
Timing of Loss "Interestingly, 2 premature stop codons in exon 3 (DSLFX and YTTR X Fig. 1) were found to be conserved in all cetaceans analyzed, a strong indication that GBA3 inactivation possibly occurred in the cetacean ancestor (Supplementary Material 4)." 10.1038/s41598-020-68106-y
