Abstract:
A comprehensive and accessible Herpesvirus drug resistance database was designed to serve as an international reference for diagnosis and clinical studies. This database available at https://www.unilim.fr/cnr-herpesvirus/outils/codexmv/includes both resistance-related mutations and natural polymorphisms. Initially designed for human cytomegalovirus, it will be expanded to include herpes simplex and varicella-zoster viruses. Newly published mutations and new mutations reported by users or collaborating expert laboratories will be reviewed by an international committee of reference laboratories before inclusion in the database. Coupled with the Herpesvirus Sequence Analysis tool (HSA) mutation reports from NGS or Sanger sequences, it will be an open source for researchers in the field of Herpesviruses. We hope to fill this unmet need for the development and standardization of resistance genotyping.
