ViPTree is a new web server for classifying viruses using genome-wide similarities. It helps researchers understand and classify newly sequenced viral genomes by generating proteomic trees and visualizing gene functions.

Area of Science:

  • Virology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Viral classification is crucial for understanding viral evolution and disease.
  • Genomic and metagenomic sequencing generate vast amounts of viral data requiring robust analysis tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce ViPTree, a web server for viral proteomic tree generation.
  • To provide a platform for classifying newly sequenced viral genomes based on genome-wide similarities.

Main Methods:

  • Users upload viral genomes (genomics or metagenomics).
  • ViPTree generates proteomic trees using user-selected reference genomes.
  • The server visualizes genomic alignments and annotates gene functions.

Main Results:
