The X-linked splicing regulator MBNL3 has been co-opted to restrict placental growth in eutherians.
Understanding the regulatory interactions that control gene expression during the development of novel tissues is a key goal of evolutionary developmental biology. Here, we show that Mbnl3 has undergone a striking process of evolutionary specialization in eutherian mammals resulting in the emergence...
