This Comment outlines the creation of the Global Alliance for Spatial Technologies (GESTALT), a collaborative initiative aimed at fostering the growth and standardization of spatial tissue profiling technologies. It explores the need for GESTALT, its community-driven structure and its goals, spanning from the immediate to the long term.
This study introduces the concept of Ancestry Components and shows that they can offer improved population stratification correction for geographically correlated traits. By using ancestry-aware polygenic score construction in admixed individuals, the authors find that effect sizes are conserved across ancestry groups.
A long- and short-read barley pan-transcriptome assembled from 20 diverse barley genotypes offers insights into genotype- and tissue-dependent gene expression and function.
The Greater Middle East is home to a rich genetic diversity that remains largely untapped in genomic research. This Perspective explores its potential for rare disease research, obstacles limiting progress and strategies to drive genomic discoveries.
Xenium spatial transcriptomic profiling of pulmonary fibrosis characterizes cell composition dynamics and histopathological features associated with the disease.
Simultaneous profiling of the genome, methylome, epigenome and transcriptome using single-molecule chromatin fiber sequencing and multiplexed arrays isoform sequencing identifies the genetic and molecular basis of an undiagnosed Mendelian disease case with an X;13-balanced translocation.
This Review discusses the various molecular mechanisms underlying the generation of new genes and highlights their important functions and phenotypes with an emphasis on the evolutionary forces underlying natural selection and sexual conflict.
Two-step Mendelian randomization, combined with multiple layers of omics evidence, implicates COL6A3-derived endotrophin as a mediator of coronary artery disease risk in the context of obesity.
Single-nucleus RNA sequencing of human visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues is used to identify adipocyte subpopulations and explore their developmental trajectories and interactions.
A novel in vivo CRISPR screening platform identifies genetic modifiers of huntingtin CAG repeat somatic instability. These modifiers include known and novel genes that are promising therapeutic targets for Huntington’s disease.
This Perspective discusses the definitions of ‘broad’ that have been used in the context of sharing of human genomic data and proposes a clarified and reformed terminology for describing genomic data sharing more precisely.
Analysis of wheat lines generated through introgression or gene editing provides evidence that Fhb1-mediated resistance to Fusarium head blight is independent of the pore-forming toxin gene PFT.
