I’m channeling @CellySally to declare the #PaperThemeTune for this paper (and highlight) is “Accidents Will Happen" by Elvis Costello.
It suggests that alternative splicing (+ other) events are just accidents on the way to making the real protein's transcript.

🥂 🐌 First paper out from our Cuba-UK collaboration 🐌🥂. We used mtDNA and rRNA sequences to place beautiful Polymita snails in a phylogeny. Basically, they are basal to a whole bunch of other important and diverse snail groups. https://academic.oup.com/mollus/article/91/2/eyaf006/8173425
There's an obvious #paperthemetune, the "Polymita song", by collaborator Norvis Hernandez and others. https://youtu.be/1srl4_JI_Fs?si=G3Z5bVLCDWR554nl #snails #mtDNA #phylogenetics #UoN
