Automated conserved noncoding sequence (CNS) discovery reveals differences in gene content and promoter evolution among grasses
Conserved noncoding sequences (CNS) are islands of noncoding sequence that, like protein coding exons, show less divergence in sequence between related species than functionless DNA. Several of CNSs have been demonstrated experimentally to function as cis-regulatory regions. However, the specific f...
