Functional "PGLYRP1/3/4 encode peptidoglycan recognition proteins, which are receptors important for antimicrobial function and for maintaining a healthy gut microbiome (75, 76)." 10.1126/sciadv.aaw6671
Other "Furthermore, while mammals generally have four genes encoding peptidoglycan recognition proteins, which are receptors important for antimicrobial function and for maintaining a healthy gut microbiome, cetaceans have lost three of these four genes (PGLYRP1/3/4; figs.
