Uncovering deeply conserved motif combinations in rapidly evolving noncoding sequences

Abstract Background Animal genomes contain thousands of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) genes, a growing subset of which are thought to be functionally important. This functionality is often mediated by short sequence elements scattered throughout the RNA sequence that correspond to binding sites for sm...
