JUNK RELATED TO COMPLEXITY. “A comparative analysis has shown that the complexity of organisms is inversely proportional to the protein coding genes in their genomes. In fact, the ncRNA-mediated gene regulation is widespread among higher eukaryotes, when compared to prokaryotes. In humans, about 98 percent of the total transcriptional output is non-coding.” (ncRNA = non coding or junk RNA). ”
