AI Decodes Hidden DNA 'On Switch' in 60% of Human Genes

Researchers at UC San Diego have employed AI to identify the DNA signature of the 'initiator,' a crucial element that dictates when genes switch on. The AI model successfully located this signature in approximately 60% of human genes, a breakthrough with potential implications for understanding genetic disorders and designing gene therapies.
