AlphaGenome Atlas: A predictive map of every possible DNA letter change in the human genome

Google DeepMind has launched AlphaGenome Atlas, a database predicting the molecular impact of 9 billion possible single-letter DNA variants.

The platform provides a comprehensive catalog of how genetic mutations affect molecular biology. By mapping the effects of every possible single-nucleotide variant, the tool aims to accelerate research into the 98% of the human genome that does not code for proteins. It is currently available for academic use via a web portal.
