Fan Zhang et al. present CRISPRminer, a comprehensive database for exploring CRISPR-Cas systems in more than 3500 microbial species and a web-server for in-depth data mining. CRISPRminer allows researchers to predict CRISPR-Cas systems and investigate self-targeting CRISPRs, microbe-phage interaction networks, and anti-CRISPR features.
