AI decodes DNA 'on switch' controlling 60% of human genes
AI has been employed by researchers to find the DNA pattern of a crucial genetic "initiator" responsible for activating genes. The model pinpointed the initiator in approximately 60% of human genes, a discovery that may assist in forecasting the impact of detrimental mutations. Ultimately, this work is a step towards decoding the full genetic code that controls gene activity throughout the body.
