The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a ...

The human genome contains about 20,000 protein-coding genes, but that only accounts for roughly two percent of the genome. For many years, it was easier for scientists to simply ignore all of that ...

The non-coding genome, once referred to as "junk DNA," is now understood to be a fundamental regulator of gene expression and ...

The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a key player in understanding ...

New research from the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery is tackling a complex packing problem. Thanks to the development of a powerful new computational tool introduced in a study published earlier ...

Both satellite repeats and pseudogenes are non-coding, with the former being comprised of larger sections of repeating DNA sequences while the latter are structurally similar to genes.

A new study shows that repetitive DNA, once dismissed as “junk,” plays a critical role in shaping the human brain.

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as "junk" and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study ...
