 Caption: This is an example of several tens of "pyknons" that are shared in various arrangements and combinations by the sequences of the 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) of 10 distinct human transcripts. These pyknons come from a set of 127,998 pyknons that are present in the intergenic/intronic regions of the human genome and have additional instances in the untranslated and protein-coding regions of 30,675 transcripts from 20,059 human genes. A 3' UTR is part of a gene's transcript that is not translated into an amino acid sequence.
