The Literature Guide
categorizes literature
into different topics, helping you sift through the papers about a
given gene to find the particular information that you need. AspGD performs a search through all PubMed literature
for all papers mentioning that locus and any aliases. (See PubMed Search for more details on how that
search is performed). AspGD curators read the abstracts of those papers, review the full text when available,
and assign the papers to one or more Topics that
describe the kind of biological information contained in the
abstracts. Please note,
however, that since sometimes only abstracts are read, the Literature Topics are
not necessarily a complete description of the information contained in the papers.
Other literature resources are also accessible from this page, including links to PubMed to search for references that mention the locus.
Literature curation is an ongoing project at AspGD. For some loci, we have not yet reviewed all of the literature. The Literature Curation Summary will give the curation status, with the numbers of both curated and uncurated references, and the date of last curation.
We search PubMed for papers associated with genus and species name keywords. We also search for gene names that we have already recorded in the database. When you publish, please be sure that the abstract includes the name of the organism(s) and name of the gene(s) studied. Inclusion of the systematic gene name(s) in the text, as well as the genetic or standard names, is important to ensure unambiguous identification of the genes during curation. Please let us know if you
think our search has missed a paper.
