Question

The coding sequences of DNA are known as?​

Answer 1

This animation describes how only a small part of the human genome directly codes for proteins.

Of the rest, about 25% make up genes and their regulatory elements, such as promoters or enhancers. The functions of the remaining sections of the genome are still unclear.
