MvirDB—a microbial database of protein toxins, virulence factors and antibiotic resistance genes for bio-defence applications
Knowledge of toxins, virulence factors and antibiotic resistance genes is essential for bio-defense applications aimed at identifying ‘functional’ signatures for characterizing emerging or engineered pathogens. Whereas genetic signatures identify a pathogen, functional signatures identify what a pat...
