
Identifying cis-regulatory elements in the human genome is a
major challenge of the post-genomic era
 Promoters and enhancers that regulate gene expression in normal and
diseased cells and tissues

Inter-species sequence comparisons have emerged as a major
technique for identifying human regulatory elements
 Particularly those to the sequenced mouse, chicken and fish genomes

A significant fraction of empirically defined human regulatory
modules
 Too weakly conserved in other mammalian genomes, such as the
mouse, to distinguish them from nonfunctional DNA
 Completely undetectable in nonmammalian genomes

Identification of such significantly divergent functional
sequences will require complementary methods in order to
complete the functional annotation of the human genome
 Deep intra-primate sequence comparison is a novel alternative to the
commonly used distant species comparisons
Non-coding sequences with primate-specific
conservation include three regulatory elements
