Promiscuity of enhancer, coding and non-coding transcription functions in ultraconserved elements
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Ultraconserved elements (UCEs) are highly constrained elements of mammalian genomes, whose functional role has not been completely elucidated yet. Previous studies have shown that some of them act as enhancers in mouse, while some ot...
