U-RVDBv15.1

Reference Viral Databases (RVDB-prot and RVDB-prot-HMM) were developed by Thomas Bigot in Marc Eloit’s Pathogen Discovery group in collaboration with Center of Bioinformatics, Biostatistics and Integrative Biology (C3BI) at Institut Pasteur, for enhancing virus detection using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies. They are based on the reference Viral DataBase, courtesy of Arifa Khan’s group at CBER, FDA:https://hive.biochemistry.gwu.edu/rvdb/.They are updated after each new release of the nucleotidic database. The version number of the protein databases follows the one of the original nucleic database.
