AlphaGenome Atlas maps 9B DNA variants

Google DeepMind launched AlphaGenome Atlas on September 8, 2026 — a ~1-petabyte database of precomputed AlphaGenome predictions for every possible single-nucleotide change in the human genome (about 9 billion variants). It adds an AlphaGenome Variant Impact (AVI) score that blends AlphaGenome and AlphaMissense signals so researchers can rank coding and non-coding variants faster, plus a no-code web portal, the AlphaGenome API, and an Antigravity skill; non-commercial access is open now, with commercial use on Google Cloud planned soon. This is DeepMind’s genome-variant atlas, not Gemini the chat model and not the Gemini crypto exchange.
