How horses run through a ‘genetic stop sign’

How horses run through a ‘genetic stop sign’ Horses have evolved a genetic mutation that allows them to bypass a “genetic stop sign” in their NRF2/KEAP1 pathway, enabling them to produce high levels of energy and protect themselves from damage during exercise. This adaptation, which involves a molecular mechanism that recodes the stop codon, is […]
