The junk DNA quotes of interest series.

Posted on June 23, 2023 by T. Ryan Gregory

One of the things I am happiest about having back online with the restored blog is the Quotes of Interest series. I had gone through the contemporary primary literature describing the discovery of each new category of non-genic DNA and showed that in every single case, functions were considered for these sequences (if not outright assumed to exist). Here’s the list of posts from this series:

  • Quotes of interest — Junk DNA and selfish DNA
  • Quotes of interest — 1970s edition (part one)
  • Quotes of interest — Ohno (1973) and discussion
  • Quotes of interest — 1980s edition (part one)
  • Quotes of interest — 1980s edition (part two)
  • Quotes of interest — Long neglected, some noncoding DNA is actually functional
  • Quotes of interest — Nobel Prize special edition
  • Quotes of interest — Science news stories
  • Quotes of interest — Satellite DNA
  • Quotes of interest — Satellite DNA in the news
  • Quotes of interest — Pseudogene
  • Quotes of interest — SINEs and LINEs
  • Quotes of interest — Alu
  • Quotes of interest — Alu again
  • Quotes of interest — ERVs
  • Quotes of interest — Beware single citations and non-citations
