dc.description.abstract	DNA inversions in bacteria were known to create diversity through intergenic or partial intergenic changes. Now, Chanin, West, et al. reveal intragenic inversions, enabling single genes to encode multiple protein variants via sequence recoding or truncation – an unexpected mechanism for expanding protein diversity without increasing genome size.
