A drastic shift in the energetic landscape of toothed whale sperm cells

L. Q. Alves, R. Ruivo, R. Valente, M. M. Fonseca, A. M. Machado, S. Plon, N. Monteiro, D. Garcia-Parraga, S. Ruiz-Diaz, M. L. Sanchez-Calabuig, A. Gutierrez-Adan, F. Castro

The paper shows toothed whale sperm cells rely on fatty acid beta-oxidation instead of glycolysis for motility due to gene erosion, highlighting an adaptation to marine environments.
