The antiSMASH database version 4: additional genomes and BGCs, new sequence-based searches and more

Many microorganisms produce natural products that are frequently used in the development of medicines and crop protection agents. Genome mining has evolved into a prominent method to access this potential. antiSMASH is the most popular tool for this task. Here we present version 4 of the antiSMASH database, providing biosynthetic gene clusters detected by antiSMASH 7.1 in publicly available, dereplicated, high-quality microbial genomes via an interactive graphical user interface. In version 4,...
