Conserved noncoding elements follow power-law-like distributions in several genomes as a result of genome dynamics.

Conserved, ultraconserved and other classes of constrained elements (collectively referred as CNEs here), identified by comparative genomics in a wide variety of genomes, are non-randomly distributed across chromosomes. These elements are defined using various degrees of conservation between organis...
