VectorBase
[1]
[2] is one of the five
Bioinformatics Resource Centers (BRC) funded by the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), a component of the
National Institutes of Health (NIH), which is an agency of the
United States Department of Health and Human Services. VectorBase is focused on invertebrate vectors of
human pathogens working with the sequencing centers and the research community to curate vector genomes (mainly
genome annotation).
Genomes covered in the VectorBase database
Tools available through the VectorBase site
- Genome browser
- Community annotation system
- Microarray and gene expression repository
- Controlled vocabularies for anatomy,
[5]
insecticide resistance and vector-borne diseases (malaria and dengue fever)
- BLAST searches for all covered genomes
