Proteome analysis with artificial intelligence has made it possible to create a catalog of all possible missense mutations in the human genome to predict diseases.

Proteome analysis with artificial intelligence has made it possible to create a catalog of all possible missense mutations in the human genome to predict diseases. The new Alphamissense tool from the technology company Google Deepmind, available online, will allow scientists to refine diagnoses and design more tailored treatment strategies for patients suffering from pathologies associated with these variants.

The phenotypic variety of spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) not caused by CAG repeat expansion (polyglutamine SCA) is greater than expected. A collaboration directed by scientists of the Paris Brain Institute described seven variants of this disorder in 756 individuals, observing that age at onset and progression by gene and variant can occur from childhood to late adulthood with very different forms of the disease.
