Viral Protein Database is an interactive database for three dimensional viral proteins. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive resource to the community of structural virology, with an emphasis on the description of derived data from structural biology. Currently, VPDB includes ˜1,670 viral protein structures from >277 viruses with more than 465 virus strains. The whole database can be easily accessed through the user convenience text search. Interactivity has been enhanced by using Jmol, WebMol and Strap to visualize the viral protein molecular structure.
The database is available for free at http://www.vpdb.bicpu.edu.in.
病毒蛋白数据库是一个关于三维病毒蛋白的交互式数据库。我们的目标是为结构病毒学领域提供一个全面的资源,重点是描述来自结构生物学的衍生数据。目前,VPDB包含来自277种以上病毒的约1670个病毒蛋白结构,涉及465多个病毒株。通过用户便捷的文本搜索可以轻松访问整个数据库。通过使用Jmol、WebMol和Strap来可视化病毒蛋白分子结构,增强了交互性。
