  description: 'ai-gene-review is an agent-curated knowledge base of Gene Ontology annotation reviews. One record per gene product: each record takes every existing GO annotation for the gene from GOA and gives it a review action (ACCEPT, MODIFY, REMOVE, MARK_AS_OVER_ANNOTATED, KEEP_AS_NON_CORE and others) with a reason and supporting evidence. The record also holds a standalone summary of the gene, its core functions as GO-CAM-like activities, proposed new GO terms, and suggested questions and experiments for experts. Reviews cover human, mouse, worm, yeast, fly, plant and many microbial gene products. Agents fetch the UniProt record, the GOA annotations and the cited publications, add deep research and bioinformatics, and write the review, which arrives by pull request. ai-gene-review is not strictly a Mech: each record reviews annotations that another resource holds, rather than being the canonical record for its gene. It keeps the Mech practices of a LinkML schema, ontology grounding,
    verbatim evidence and an append-only curation history.'

One record is one chemical structure, keyed by its ChEBI identifier and carrying SMILES, InChI and InChIKey. A class such as macrolide antibiotic is not a record. It is a structural_class on the records it covers. Each record carries what the compound hits, how microbes resist it, and the evidence for both.

  description: 'CultureMech is a versioned knowledge base of microbial culture-media recipes from MediaDive, TogoMedium, KOMODO and the major culture collections. It combines LinkML validation, ontology grounding, provenance, deduplication, browser exports and static recipe pages. The corpus has four layers: immutable raw source payloads, mechanical source-shaped YAML, authoritative normalized records that preserve source-specific formulations, and reproducible merged records that are the deduplicated canonical output. The merged layer is what this entry counts.'

  description: 'DisMech, the Disorder Mechanisms Knowledge Base, is a structured, evidence-backed knowledge base of disease pathophysiology. It records how diseases work: the cell types, biological processes and causal chains that link a genetic or environmental cause to its clinical phenotypes. Every claim carries a citation with a verbatim quote that is checked against the source. Each disorder is one YAML file holding pathophysiology, phenotypes, genetics, treatments, evidence and ontology term bindings. Conserved pathological processes are factored into mechanism modules that disorders declare conformance to. DisMech is the canonical Mech: the other Mechs in this registry adopt its curation pattern.'

One record is one Pfam family whose public InterPro metadata still reads like a domain or protein of unknown function (DUF or UPF), including families since renamed. Records are generated from a frozen, versioned InterPro/Pfam worklist. Scientific curation lives in separate overlays, so imported descriptions and seed labels never become functional claims.

  description: 'KG-Registry is a registry of knowledge graphs and the resources they are built from: data sources, ontologies, data models and aggregators. One record per resource: each record holds the resource''s description, domains, taxa, license, contacts, publications and activity status, and lists its products (graph dumps, APIs, browsers, mappings, documentation) with the upstream resources each product was derived from. Those provenance links make the registry a graph of where biomedical knowledge comes from and where it goes. Agents expand stub records and refresh stale ones with skills kept in the repository, scripted syncs pull records from the OBO Foundry, FRINK, KG-Bioportal and Translator, and every agent change arrives by pull request. KG-Registry is not strictly a Mech: its records are metadata about other resources rather than evidence-backed claims, and it keeps no append-only curation history beyond the repository''s own. It keeps the Mech practices of one record per
    entity in a closed LinkML schema, agent curation behind human review, and publication references checked against cached sources. MechRegistry is modeled on it.'

  description: MediaIngredientMech is an LLM-assisted curation system for culture-media ingredient ontology mappings, with full audit trails. It manages the ingredient records aggregated from media recipes in CultureMech and owns ingredient identity for the X-Mech fleet. An ingredient record denotes a specific chemical someone can order. Where sources disagree about which form a recipe means, the record picks one by convention, preferring the term that carries the commercial CAS number, and keeps every raw form as a resolvable synonym.

  description: 'SOMAMech is a paper-extraction knowledge base for environmental health sciences. It curates publications on PM2.5, smoke and other inhaled exposures and their effects on airway biology into data that validate against the SOMA LinkML schema. One record per publication: each record is a Container that holds the paper''s study subjects, exposures, protocols, assays and measurements, linked to Key Events and Adverse Outcome Pathways. Assay classes cover ciliary function, airway surface liquid, mucociliary clearance, oxidative stress, CFTR ion transport, EGFR signaling, mucin and goblet cell biology, inflammatory markers in BALF and sputum, lung function and gene expression. Every extracted measurement carries an evidence block that quotes the paper, and the quote is checked against the paper text. Papers enter through a stub queue, are claimed one at a time by GitHub issue, and arrive by pull request. SOMAMech follows the DisMech curation pattern.'

  description: 'TaxonMech is a knowledge base of microbial taxa and the strains behind them. One record per taxon, keyed by NCBI Taxonomy and harmonized with GTDB, LPSN, BacDive, MediaDive, GOLD, Madin et al. and BactoTraits through the kg-microbe transforms. Records are species and below. Higher taxa appear only in a record''s lineage. Each record keeps every source''s own identifier, mapping predicate and assertion count, the LPSN nomenclature with type strain designations, the GTDB species mapping with its genome count, and the BacDive strains with their culture-collection deposits. A primary focus is linking strain identifiers to genome identifiers: NCBI GenBank and RefSeq assemblies first, then GTDB, BV-BRC, IMG and AllTheBacteria records, each link carrying the source record that asserts it. Phenotypes, media and isolation sources are left to TraitMech, CultureMech and HabitatMech.'
