Short sequence motifs, overrepresented in mammalian conserved non-coding sequences

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>A substantial fraction of non-coding DNA sequences of multicellular eukaryotes is under selective constraint. In particular, ~5% of the human genome consists of conserved non-coding sequences (CNSs). CNSs differ from other genomic se...
