Very pleased to see that @ensembl is this week's featured GCBR. A good time to also point towards our latest developments too such as beta.ensembl.org.
12 Aug 2024
Our featured GCBR of the Week is @ensembl , a genome browser for vertebrate genomes that supports research in comparative genomics, evolution, sequence variation and transcriptional regulation.

📢 @GoogleDeepMind’s new AI tool, #AlphaMissense, has catalogued 89% of all 71 million possible missense #variants, predicting their potential to cause disease 🧬 Best part? It is freely available and now integrated as an #Ensembl #VEP plugin! 🥳

Uncovering the causes of disease is one of the greatest challenges in genetics. 🧬
To help advance this, we created AlphaMissense: an AI model classifying missense variants - or genetic changes affecting proteins.
Here's how it can help scientists. 🧵 dpmd.ai/alphamissense-blog

AlphaMissense from @GoogleDeepMind is already available via @Ensembl VEP as a plugin. Another example of an excellent collaboration between them and @emblebi building the previous successes of AlphaFold. Great work by the Ensembl team especially our variation resources
The new AlphaMissense catalogue from @GoogleDeepMind can be used with the @ensembl Variant Effect Predictor to predict variant pathogenicity and therefore aid interpretation.

This has been a long road since our PR was opened 4th March 2020. I am immensely proud of the work that's gone into refget from its origins in the CRAM Reference Registry to now as a foundational standard in genomics. Thank you to all who have contributed
It's official: #refget v2.0 is the next GA4GH standard. bit.ly/3XTm4z1
This API for reliably finding the right reference sequence powers all #CRAM files. v2.0 users include GA4GH VRS, @ENASequence, and soon @ensembl.
Thanks to @emblebi's @tcezard & @enscore and the team!

A huge amount of work has gone into making the move from the Wellcome Sanger Institute to EMBL-EBI. We are proud to have such a powerful and well used service now part of our portfolio. Congratulations to all at EMBL and Sanger who made this possible.
The DECIPHER project is joining EMBL-EBI!
DECIPHER is a powerful data resource for the diagnosis and discovery of rare diseases. By moving to EMBL-EBI, the project will develop through support from our data management experts.

All of the pangenomes are available for access through our Rapid Release @ensembl portal including T2T (rapid.ensembl.org). We are all exceptionally proud at Ensembl to be part of this new phase of global efforts to better understand human diversity
Genomes differ slightly among individuals and so using one standard reference genome has limitations.
Researchers from @HumanPangenome have released a more complete collection of genome sequences – the human pangenome – to better capture human diversity.
