Welcome to the Poxvirus Bioinformatics Resource Center. This Center has been established to provide resources to the scientific community for basic research and to facilitate the development of novel antiviral therapies and vaccines against human orthopoxvirus infections as well as approaches for environmental detection of virions and the rapid diagnosis of disease.
The Center provides a relational database that supports data storage of poxvirus genomic sequences, and annotation and analysis of poxvirus ORF; web-based data mining and sequence analysis tools; software for analysis of complete genomes; a poxvirus literature resource; a repository of poxvirus species and strains (at ATCC); and a discussion forum.

The Poxvirus Bioinformatics Resource Center was created
by a consortium of laboratories. An Advisory Committee has been established
to help guide the development of this Center. Funding for this project is
being provided by the
National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and the
Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency. Suggestions for improvement of the Center are welcomed
(see Feedback).
