Hi, I've signed up for this review. Comments to follow in a day or three. Sasata (talk) 16:45, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
Wow! Very good article, I enjoyed reading it. Are you a scientist by profession? Just a few minor nitpicks below. I'll read it through again in a couple of days to check references, and make sure that any biochem jargon which I understood is adequately explained for the average reader.

- who discovered the mups? How about a cite to the original paper(s)?
- "The central Class B Mup gene cluster formed by number of sequential duplications from one of the Class A Mups." missing a word somewhere
- "It is currently unknown if reptiles have Mup genes." Can this be sourced or is it your own observation?
- suggest removing several uses of "recently", and replacing with years
- Thank you for the review (and also for the copy edit). Your suggestions are excellent, I'll incorporate them a little later today. Yes, I am a scientist. In fact my colleagues and I and been looking at these proteins for a while and we have found a cool new function for them. I'll have to wait until that is published before I can add it to the article, of course, but I hope once that happens the it should be comprehensive enough to try for FA status.

- I have (hopefully) addressed your helpful suggestions. Your question about who discovered Mups directed me to some very old, and quite fascinating, literature. From that I learned a remarkable bit of trivia: Mups were first discovered by Gavin Newsom's great-grandfather! Rockpocket 08:19, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
Excellent! I'm happy to promote this article to GA status, and look forward to its appearance at FAC. Please write more biochem articles! Sasata (talk) 15:29, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
