Transcribed Ultraconserved Regions: New regulators in cancer signaling and potential biomarkers

Abstract The ultraconserved regions (UCRs) are 481 genomic elements, longer than 200 bp, 100% conserved in human, mouse, and rat genomes. Usually, coding regions are more conserved, but more than 80% of UCRs are either intergenic or intronic, and many of them produce long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs)....
