Google Deepmind is shedding light on the dark genome with its latest AI model, which is trained to decipher the 98% of DNA that does not code for proteins. Alphagenome is designed to predict how ...

In two new studies on 28,000 individuals, researchers are able to show that genetic variants in 11 regions of the human genome have a clear influence on which bacteria are in the gut and what they do ...

Researchers have successfully employed an algorithm to identify potential mutations which increase disease risk in the noncoding regions our DNA, which make up the vast majority of the human genome.

Short-read sequencing has helped scientists identify and study genetic variants that increase Alzheimer’s disease risk, for example in the APOE, TREM2, and other genes. Yet these methods fail to ...

Google DeepMind released AlphaGenome on January 28, an AI model that predicts how DNA sequences translate into biological functions, processing up to one million base-pairs at once and outperforming ...

Researchers found that paired pathogenic variants can restore protein function rather than make it worse. This phenomenon ...

Data from our group have demonstrated that some, but not all, low-level resistant variants can lead to virologic failure as other active agents in a regimen (with different genetic barriers) may ...

In the last several years, large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Bard have shown the world the astounding power of generative AI for language creation tools. However, some of the most exciting ...

The gene RAD51C is a “cancer protection” gene that encodes a protein crucial for DNA repair. Variants in this gene that stop the protein from working are known to increase the risk of breast and ...
