Vector is Children's Hospital Boston's blog about research and innovation in pediatric and adult medicine. We report and comment on medical innovations and advances – from bench to bedside – touching on scientific, business and policy issues. Our ranks include science writers, physicians, lab researchers, market analysts and others inside and outside the hospital.
Vast chunks of our DNA – fully 98 percent of our genome – are considered "non-coding," meaning that they're not thought to carry instructions to make proteins. Yet we already know that this "junk DNA" isn't completely filler. For example, some sequences are known to code for bits of RNA that act as switches, turning genes on and off.
