DrugProt corpus genes and proteins annotation guidelines [GPRO - Biocreative 5.2]

Annotation guidelines used for the annotations of gene and protein-related objects of the CHEMDNER, ChemProt and DrugProt corpora.

Introduction

The annotation guidelines have been refined after iterative cycles of annotations of sample documents. It also incorporated suggestions made by curators as well as observations of annotation inconsistencies encountered when comparing results from different human curators.

In brief, the annotated GPROs include genes, gene products
(proteins, RNA), DNA/protein sequence elements and protein families, domains and complexes. The aim of the iterative manual annotation cycles was to improve the quality and consistency of the guidelines, in order to make them more intuitive and easier to follow.
