ResLit: A Large-Scale Automated Literature Mining Database for Antimicrobial Resistance
Antimicrobial resistance generates a vast, rapidly growing literature, yet no resource offers a comprehensive, evidence-linked repository of AMR findings at scale. We present ResLit, an automated pipeline and public database that mines the AMR literature for resistance genes, mutations, organisms, and mechanisms. From 2 million candidate PubMed records, BioMistral-7B screened abstracts to 356,000 relevant papers; multi-tier retrieval yielded 117,000 full texts, from which Qwen3-30B performed two-step extraction. ResLit contains 3,120 genes and 13,593 mutations, cross-linked to CARD, ResFinder, and NCBI Reference Gene Catalog across four evidence tiers. It further supports community-driven curation of automated outputs and reference databases. Freely available at www.reslit.info.
