An example of the functional potential for non-coding regions is the locus control region of the opsin gene cluster (Nathans, et. al. 1989) shown to cause 50% of the cases of blue cone monochromacy. The locus control region is approximately 4 kilobases upstream of the red opsin gene, and 43 kilobase ...
