issue regarding the expression strategy of CsRn1. Our results demonstrate that CsRn1 copies lacking frameshifting have arisen from the precedential counterparts with two overlapping ORFs by a single-nucleotide insertion at an upstream region of gag stop codon. The insertional event appeared to have occurred sporadically in multiple CsRn1 copies in the C. sinensis and O. viverrini genomes, although their evolutionary fate differed in the respective genomes. The newly evolving variant exhibited…
