How can i know the length of an intronic region of specific gene?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extremely variable: The length of an intron is extremely variable. Even within the same gene, the introns of vastly different lengths can exist. Depending on the statistical method used, the average intron size is somewhere between 3500 base pairs and 5000 base pairs.
