Functional Attenuation of UCP1 as the Potential Mechanism for a Thickened Blubber Layer in Cetaceans
Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is an essential protein in the mitochondrial inner membrane that mediates nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) and plays an important role in thermoregulation and fat deposition. However, the relationship between the evolution of UCP1 and fat deposition in the blubber layer i...
