Mutation Description | "Interestingly, a cross species analysis in Hominoidea and Cercopithecoidea uncovers a conserved single mutation that spans throughout all analysed Cmy-like sequences, namely a termination codon in exon 5." | 10.1016/j.ympev.2017.08.014 |
Mutation Description | "ORF-disrupting mutations were also found in the sister clade, the Cercopithecoidea. We found no remnants of exon 3 and exon 4 in the corresponding genomic region suggesting a marked Cmy erosion by the complete deletion of these exons in these species, in addition to several observed ORF abolishing mutations (Fig. 1)." | 10.1016/j.ympev.2017.08.014 |
Curator Observations
Although only genomic evidence is provided the conservation of the observed mutations in Hominoidea strongly supports that the pseudogenization in this species is fixed.
