Fig. 6. A possible amino acid substitution of LHPP that contributed to hypoxic adaptation in C. heheva and cetaceans.

Fig. 6

The maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree of cetaceans, C. heheva, and other echinoderms was reconstructed using 598 single-copy orthologs. C. heheva and cetaceans, which are tolerant to hypoxia, have the same amino acid substitution at position 118 of LHPP protein.
