This detail led them to conclude that inherited non-coding DNA sequences – not mutations in genes – may drive the lion's share of differences in where transcription factors attach.

这一细节让他们作出结论：可能是遗传获得的非编码DNA序列、而不是基因变异才使得最大部分的转录因子结合位置发生变化。

Modeling non coding background sequences appropriately is important for the detection of regulatory elements from DNA sequences.

合理建模非编码序列对正确识别DNA序列中的调控元件非常重要。

Now we are finally pinning down how much differences in non-coding DNA - stretches of the molecule that don't produce proteins and used to be considered "junk" - shape who we are.

现在，我们终于开始着手确定非编码DNA(不产生蛋白质的分子片段，习惯上被认为是“垃圾”)的差异性对人类的影响水平。

The mutations affect non-coding DNA and do not have an impact on health.

Dr Vinogradov also proposes that for some animals, the cost of accumulating non-coding DNA in their genomes is probably balanced by other benefits.
