Thrilled to share! 🧬🌍 Our 800M+ long-read RNA-seq dataset from 8 diverse populations reveals big gaps in gene annotations for non-European transcripts. Let’s build global inclusive annotations.

Do you work in 💫human genetics💫?
Have you ever worried about what’s inside your gene annotation GTF⁉️
WELL, YOU SHOULD! 😱
Especially when studying a genetically diverse 🌍 cohort!
🔴We discover that gene annotations are European-biased 👉 impacting downstream analyses!

Accurate gene annotations are fundamental for interpreting genetic variation, cellular function, and disease mechanisms. However, current human gene annotations are largely derived from transcriptomic...
Human gene maps contain major blind spots that leaves out a vast majority of the world's biological diversity, according to a new study led by the CRG's @rodericguigo.bsky.social with @bsc-cns.bsky.social. The researchers uncovered tens of thousands of new transcripts and entirely new genes.
