So, I noticed something about #Trump’s trip to #China, because I tend to pay attention to #bioethics stuff. Amongst all the panopticon bros was a solitary biotech executive; Jacob #Thaysen, CEO of #Illumina.

Illumina holds the patents that mean 80% of the world’s #genomic analysis is done via their products or databases.

According to #CIA agents, the #US left the #WHO so we didn’t have to admit that we’d funded the Chinese lab where #COVID seems to have originated.

Leaving the WHO also means Illumina no longer has to share their data with public health experts. And they’ve been first on the ground in both #hantavirus and #Ebola to sequence these outbreaks. #African countries must sign away their #genome rights before America will pay the health budget Congress authorized. So, that’s fun.

And once again, as I start digging, the #DreyDossier brings receipts. She’s a hella investigator.

PrimateAI scores measures the pathogenicity of protein coding missense variants. When the score is close to one, it means the variant is highly likely deleterious; whereas when it is close to 0, it is generally considered benign. It is recommended to use PrimateAI score cutoff of 0.8 to distinguish benign variants from deleterious variants.

PrimateAI-3D

PrimateAI-3D algorithm is a semi-supervised 3D-convolutional neural network for variant pathogenicity prediction, trained on 4.5 million common missense variants with likely benign consequence and precise protein 3D structures. It also leveraged language models of protein sequences and variational autoencoder on multiple sequence alignments.
