Reference International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium. Finishing the euchromatic sequence of the human genome. Nature. 2004 Oct 21431(7011):931-45 p.942 right column 2nd paragraphPubMed ID15496913
Comments The total length covered by the coding exons is approximately 34 Mb or approximately 1.2% of the euchromatic genome the untranslated regions of the transcripts are estimated to cover another approximately 21 Mb or approximately 0.7% of the euchromatic genome. Note-Elgar et al., 2008 PMID 18514361 also give value of >98% for non-protein coding part of the genome
