Genetic and functional diversity of the multiple lungfish myoglobins
The lungfish harbors multiple copies of the oxygen‐binding protein myoglobin (Mb). Amplification of this gene occurred during an early stage of lungfish evolution. The Mbs are differentially expressed throughout various tissues and display different abilities to bind oxygen or act as enzymes. Remarkably, the main expression site of the Mbs is the brain
