Abstract Background We describe the distribution of indels in the 44 Encyclopedia of DNA Elements ENCODE regions about 1 of the human genome and evaluate the potential contributions of small insertion and deletion polymorphisms indels to human genetic variation. We relate indels to known genomic annotation features and measures of evolutionary constraint. Results Indel rates are observed to be reduced approximately 20-fold to 60-fold in exonic regions 5-fold to l0-fold in sequence that exhibits high evolutionary constraint in mammals and up to 2-fold in some classes of regulatory elements for instance formaldehyde assisted isolation of regulatory elements FAIRE and hypersensitive sites . In addition some noncoding transcription and other chromatin mediated .
