T1 - Active Conservation of Noncoding Sequences Revealed by Three-Way Species Comparisons Y1 - 2000/09/01 JF - Genome Research JO - Genome Research SP - 1304 EP - 1306 DO - 10.1101/gr.142200 VL - 10 IS - 9 UR - http://genome.cshlp.org/content/10/9/1304.abstract N2 - Human and mouse genomic sequence comparisons are being increasingly used to search for evolutionarily conserved gene regulatory elements. Large-scale human–mouse DNA comparison studies have discovered numerous conserved noncoding sequences of which only a fraction has been functionally investigated A question therefore remains as to whether most of these noncoding sequences are conserved because of functional constraints or are the result of a lack of divergence time.[The sequence data described in this paper have been submitted to the GenBank data library under accession nos. AF276990.] ER -
