What happened

Google Deepmind has used the AlphaGenome Atlas to predict what each of the roughly nine billion possible single-letter changes in the human genome could do. The dataset spans one petabyte, more than 30 times the size of the AlphaFold database. In one epilepsy case, the atlas helped pinpoint a previously overlooked variant as the likely cause.
