Researchers from HSE University and Sber Artificial Intelligence Lab in Russia are using AI to predict the location of DNA fragments in the genome which can flip over and form a mirror structure known as Z-DNA. The scientists have found that these DNA fragments overlap with known mutations which can cause severe hereditary diseases and impact a person's health, height, weight, cholesterol levels, and even determine their hair color. The study findings werepublished on May 10, 2023 in Life Science Alliance. The open-access article is titled “Z-Flipon Variants Reveal the Many Roles of Z-DNA and Z-RNA in Health and Disease.”
