ResiDB: An automated database manager for sequence data.

ABSTRACT: The amount of publicly available DNA sequence data is drastically increasing, making it a tedious task to create sequence databases necessary for the design of diagnostic assays. The selection of appropriate sequences is especially challenging in genes affected by frequent point mutations such as antibiotic resistance genes. To overcome this issue, we have designed the webtool resiDB, a rapid and user-friendly sequence database manager for bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa, invertebrates, plants, archaea, environmental and whole genome shotgun sequence data. It automatically identifies and curates sequence clusters to create custom sequence databases based on user-defined input sequences. A collection of helpful visualization tools gives the user the opportunity to easily access, evaluate
