One method uses the intergenic distance between reading frames as a primary predictor of the number of operons in the genome. The separation merely changes the frame and guarantees that the read through is efficient.

to characterize these noncoding sequences and derive insights into their evolution and possible biological function, we computationally identified all the gene deserts present in the human genome and compared them with other average-sized intergenic ...
