"Cookie for you! TLR4 is present in most ray-finned fish but may be absent from the pufferfish, which has a drastically streamed-down genome (it has removed most transposable elements and some genes--its shortness made it an attractive target for sequencing). It is thought that TLR4 may have another purpose in fish, since it does not appear to respond to endotoxin stimulus..."

How 'bout that! Fish don't have the endotoxic recognition and signaling that ancient Coral and Modern Humans share.

....go figure!

Why, it's almost like DNA code skipping (wink, wink).

Dear, I thought we were making progress.

Coral have a TLR, fish have multiple TLRs, humans have the TLRs fish have and more. No skipping involved.
