@cdessimoz@news4go@ISBSIB@Gloveface@DEE_UNIL @marc_rr @fred_bstn Right, phylogeny cartoon showing divergence of paralogs to outgroup, and graph showing higher expression similarity for slower evolving paralogs than for fast evolving ones.
In this exciting new preprint, Warwick Vesztrocy et al use Bgee to show that "the most diverged orthologues display the greatest change in gene expression, thus suggesting that they have a greater functional divergence"

@cdessimoz@news4go@ISBSIB@Gloveface@DEE_UNIL @marc_rr @fred_bstn Left, phylogeny cartoon showing divergence between paralogs (symmetric: same branch lengths, asymmetric: different branch lengths for paralogs), and boxplots showing higher expression similarity for symmetric than assymetric paralog pairs.
Thrilled to represent @ISBSIB at the AI-Bioscience Collaborative Summit in Washington DC, organized by @StateDept et al. Great to see a growing recognition of curated biodata’s critical role in AI breakthroughs, exemplified by resources like PDB & @uniprot enabling AlphaFold. 1/2
Bgee is proud to contribute open gene expression data to Wikidata. Happy birthday @wikidata!
You can leverage this data directly through Wikidata, or find it under RNA expression pattern in the info box of every gene page in Wikipedia.

Do you know gget by the Pachter lab? You should! It now includes efficient querying of Bgee in Python. Get high quality curated gene expression data directly in Python or command line. #RNAseq#biocuration#Python#scRNAseq https://t.co/FcGUR94w4I @lpachter@ISBSIB @marc_rr
We also added the free text anatomical, developmental and cell type information provided by authors in addition to the standardized ontology terms. @ISBSIB
This release includes the addition of a large number of bulk RNA-Seq libraries in Salmo salar (Atlantic salmon). We also now provide "physiological status", which holds information about the smoltification status of individuals which is especially relevant for Salmo salar.
We are proud to announce the release of Bgee 15.2 with the addition of thousands of single-cell 10X Genomics and bulk RNA-Seq libraries to allow for more meaningful gene expression comparisons across species. https://t.co/YIp1kwGiG1
We are excited to announce a new training course on Bgee 🧬
