The source of genetic variation in this case is primarily recombination (not included in any of Behe's calculations), secondarily frameshifting (not included in any of Behe's calculations), and least of all point mutations (the slowest variation mechanism, and the only one that Behe considers).

There are findings such as translational starts at different start codons on one and the same messenger RNA; instances of obligatory frameshifting within a given message without which a nonfunctional polypeptide would result; and post-translational protein modification such as removing amino acids from the amino terminus of the translated polypeptide.
