Mutation Description |
"PCSK9 has clearly undergone pseudogenization in this species, as several exons were lost, and the remaining had three nonsense mutations, all of which were confirmed by raw sequence data." |

"At present, and in the absence of additional data, it is not possible to determine whether the inactivation is common to the entire family Ochotonidae, or a restricted phenomenon." |
