The Lifespan of Depends on the Function of the Gene, a Domesticated Gene of Drosophila LTR Retrotransposons.

(1) Background: The gene in 's genome originated from the molecular domestication of retrotransposons and retroviruses' gene. In all species, the Gagr protein homologs exhibit a conserved structure, indicative of a vital role. Previous studies have suggested a potential link between the gene function and stress responses.
