Transcription start sites are new mutational hotspots, according to a new study by the CRG's Donate Weghorn in Nature Communications. The mutations can be passed down to future generations and appear shortly after conception, in the first few rounds of cell division.

A great thing about working in a lab is being involved in lab meetings and witnessing everyone's projects take shape. A single project may seem to go slow but all projects together is impressive.

EMBL researchers and their collaborators have provided exciting new insights into human genetic variation by building upon the 1000 Genomes Project dataset. The two studies constitute what may be the most complete overview of the human genome to date. www.embl.org/news/science...

The first, co-authored by @bernardo-rodriguez.bsky.social, discovered more than 167,000 structural variants across the 1,019 individuals, doubling the known amount of structural variation in the human pangenome. Most variants were rare, which will help accelerate the diagnosis of rare diseases.
