Atlas of primary cell-type-specific sequence models of gene expression and variant effects.

Human biology is rooted in highly specialized cell types programmed by a common genome, 98% of which is outside of genes. Genetic variation in the enormous noncoding space is linked to the majority of disease risk. To address the problem of linking these variants to expression changes in primary human cells, we introduce ExPectoSC, an atlas of modular deep-learning-based models for predicting cell-type-specific gene expression directly from sequence.

Global analysis of the yeast knockout phenome.

Genome-wide phenotypic screens in the budding yeast , enabled by its knockout collection, have produced the largest, richest, and most systematic phenotypic description of any organism. However, integrative analyses of this rich data source have been virtually impossible because of the lack of a central data repository and consistent metadata annotations. Here, we describe the aggregation, harmonization, and analysis of ~14,500 yeast knockout screens, which we call Yeast Phenome.

Overview of the COVID-19 text mining tool interactive demonstration track in BioCreative VII.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has compelled biomedical researchers to communicate data in real time to establish more effective medical treatments and public health policies. Nontraditional sources such as preprint publications, i.e.

The BioGRID database: A comprehensive biomedical resource of curated protein, genetic, and chemical interactions.

The BioGRID (Biological General Repository for Interaction Datasets, thebiogrid.org) is an open-access database resource that houses manually curated protein and genetic interactions from multiple species including yeast, worm, fly, mouse, and human. The ~1.

Selective Neuronal Vulnerability in Alzheimer's Disease: A Network-Based Analysis.

A major obstacle to treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) is our lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying selective neuronal vulnerability, a key characteristic of the disease. Here, we present a framework integrating high-quality neuron-type-specific molecular profiles across the lifetime of the healthy mouse, which we generated using bacTRAP, with postmortem human functional genomics and quantitative genetics data. We demonstrate human-mouse conservation of cellular taxonomy at the molecular level for neurons vulnerable and resistant in AD, identify specific genes and pathways associated with AD neuropathology, and pinpoint a specific functional gene module underlying selective vulnerability, enriched in processes associated with axonal remodeling, and affected by amyloid accumulation and aging.
