Ultra-conserved Elements

Ultra-Conserved Elements is a class of genomic elements characterized by perfect or nearly perfect sequence identity across distantly related species, distinguished from other conserved noncoding elements by their exceptional degree of evolutionary conservation exceeding 200 base pairs in length and 100% sequence identity.
