Autorecoding A-to-I RNA editing sites in the Adar gene underwent compensatory gains and losses in major insect clades

Evolutionary dynamics of autorecoding sites in Adar. (A) Fractions of the editable (red), uneditable (blue), postedit (orange) codons of site1 and site2 in different clades. The phylogenetic tree represents a topology without branch length information. Gaps and other codons are colored in gray. (B) Gains and losses of editable (red) and uneditable (blue) codons at autorecoding sites. For site2, the codons other than editable or uneditable Ile are colored in gray. “Insecta” means the insect class.
