"45.8% of known and predicted genes in version 8.0 of the
A. thaliana
genome (CR [coding regions of gene] and UTRs) contain at least one
pyknon [non-random sequence patterns significantly repeated throughout non-coding genomic DNA that also appear at least once among coding genes] instance (12355 out of 26990 gene records)." "In fact, the set of 26990
A. thaliana
genes examined specifically
did not include 4759 TEs, TE-associated genes and pseudogenes,
meaning that [researchers] have not simply matched sequences which are
most commonly associated with repeats." See BNID 105 446 |
