Advancing regulatory variant effect prediction with AlphaGenome

🔘 Paper page: nature.com/articles/s41586-025-10014-0 Abstract Deep learning models that predict functional genomic measurements from DNA sequences are powerful tools for deciphering the genetic regulatory code. Existing methods involve a trade-off between input sequence length and prediction resolution, thereby limiting their modality scope and performance1,2,3,4,5. We present AlphaGenome, a unified DNA sequence model, which takes as
