ARGminer: A web platform for crowdsourcing-based curation of antibiotic resistance genes

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Curation of antibiotic resistance gene (ARG) databases is labor intensive and requires expert knowledge to manually collect, correct, and/or annotate individual genes. Consequently, most existing ARG databases contain only a small number of ARGs (~5k genes) and updates to these databases tend to be infrequent, commonly requiring years for completion and often containing inconsistencies. Thus a n...
