Flavitrack -- an annotated database of flavivirus sequences
What you can do:
Annotated sequence data for flaviviruses.
Highlights:
- Properly annotated sequence data for flaviviruses, which cause diseases, such as tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), dengue fever (DF), West Nile (WN) and yellow fever (YF), can aid in the design of antiviral drugs and vaccines to prevent their spread.
- Flavitrack was designed to help identify conserved sequence motifs, interpret mutational and structural data and track evolution of phenotypic properties.
- Flavitrack contains over 1400 complete flavivirus genome/protein sequences and information on known mutations and literature references.
- Each sequence has been manually annotated according to its date and place of isolation, phenotype and lethality.
- Internal tools are provided to rapidly determine relationships between viruses in Flavitrack and sequences provided by the user.
