A crowdsourcing open platform for literature curation in UniProt.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2021
The UniProt knowledgebase is a public database for protein sequence and function, covering the tree of life and over 220 million protein entries. Now, the whole community can use a new crowdsourcing annotation system to help scale up UniProt curation and

Hidden in plain sight: what remains to be discovered in the eukaryotic proteome? [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2019
The first decade of genome sequencing stimulated an explosion in the characterization of unknown proteins. More recently, the pace of functional discovery has slowed, leaving around 20% of the proteins even in well-studied model organisms without ...

Beyond gene ontology (GO): using biocuration approach to improve the gene nomenclature and functional annotation of rice S-domain kinase subfamily [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
The S-domain subfamily of receptor-like kinases (SDRLKs) in plants is poorly characterized. Most members of this subfamily are currently assigned gene function based on the S-locus Receptor Kinase from Brassica that acts as the female determinant of self-

Biocuration Virtual Issue 2012 [PDF]

open access: yesDatabase, 2012
Curated databases are a cornerstone of research in the life sciences providing essential encyclopedic-like reference information on genes, their products and interactions, nomenclature standards, reference genome sequences and their annotations. Research laboratories and experimental techniques rely on resources such as databases and bioinformatics ...

APICURON: a database to credit and acknowledge the work of biocurators [PDF]

open access: yesDatabase, 2021
Abstract APICURON is an open and freely accessible resource that tracks and credits the work of biocurators across multiple participating knowledgebases. Biocuration is essential to extract knowledge from research data and make it available in a structured and standardized way to the scientific community.

Characterization and automated classification of sentences in the biomedical literature: a case study for biocuration of gene expression and protein kinase activity. [PDF]

open access: yesDatabase (Oxford)
Biological knowledgebases are essential resources for biomedical researchers, providing ready access to gene function and genomic data. Professional, manual curation of knowledgebases, however, is labour-intensive and thus high-performing machine ...

IMGT® Biocuration and Analysis of the Rhesus Monkey IG Loci

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
The adaptive immune system, along with the innate immune system, are the two main biological processes that protect an organism from pathogens. The adaptive immune system is characterized by the specificity and extreme diversity of its antigen receptors.
