GC Rule- GC content tends to be greater in exons than in introns
#Id: 463
Exons are the sequences which essentially encodes for functional and properly folded polypeptide or RNA molecule
#Id: 464
Introns are nucleotide sequence which cannot encode functional proteins or polypeptides or introns do not have a sequence-specific function.
#Id: 465
Introns have negative Fold Potential i.e. potential to form stem loop.
#Id: 466
Overlapping gene are the same sequence of DNA encodes two nonhomologous proteins because it uses more than one reading frame.
#Id: 467
Mutations occur at the same rate in both exons and introns, but exon mutations are eliminated more effectively by selection.
