From: Detection of weakly conserved ancestral mammalian regulatory sequences by primate comparisons
Primate comparisons identify known functional elements and conserved non-coding sequences in genomic intervals encompassing LXRα, SREBF1, CYP7A1, LDLR, ABCG5, ABCG8, APOE cluster, APOCIII cluster, and HMGCR. The number of evolutionarily conserved sequences (p value ≤ 0.1) overlapping exons, previously known regulatory elements and unannotated regions (new predictions) in the eight loci are shown for the following species sets: (a) seven anthropoid primates, (b) human-mouse, (c) human-dog and (d) human-rhesus-marmoset. Percentages were calculated by dividing the number of conserved sequences of each type by the total number of conserved elements (× 100).
