Just like in our DNA...

Seems plausible enough to me. Most of the basic building
materials, metabolic processes, etc. are much the same from
one species to another. It's the "control structures", however
implemented, that are going to decide what shape the organism
grows into. If the control structures turn out to reside in
the non-transcripted DNA, it may well be true that most of the
differences between species are in there.
