Gene counts

Gene/transcipt that contains an open reading frame (ORF).Coding genes	17,077
Non coding genes	13,729
Small non coding genes	1,275
Long non coding genes	12,449
Misc non coding genes	5
A gene that has homology to known protein-coding genes but contain a frameshift and/or stop codon(s) which disrupts the ORF. Thought to have arisen through duplication followed by loss of function.Pseudogenes	56
A transcript is the operational unit of a gene. In a genomic context, transcripts consist of one or more exons, with adjoining exons being separated by introns. The exons/introns are transcribed and then the introns spliced out. Transcripts may or may not encode a proteinGene transcripts	74,296
