Scientists have completed a major effort to map the regulatory landscape of the mouse genome at a single-cell resolution. Despite the species difference, this mouse cell atlas is helping implicate which cell types underlie specific human diseases. The atlas data could also advance the understanding of developmental pathways and the formation of cell lineages. Related atlases have already been compiled for developing worms and flies.
