Parallel independent losses of g-type lysozyme genes in hairless aquatic mammals.
Zhang, X; Chi, H; Li, G; Irwin, DM; Zhang, S; Rossiter, SJ; Liu, Y (Oxford University Press, 2021-08-27)Lysozyme enzymes provide classic examples of molecular adaptation and parallel evolution, however, nearly all insights to date come from c-type lysozymes. G-type lysozymes occur in diverse vertebrates, with multiple ...
