VFDB also known as Virulence Factor Database is a database that provides scientist quick access to virulence factors in bacterial pathogens. [1] It can be navigated and browsed using genus or words. A BLAST tool is provided for search against known virulence factors. [2] VFDB contains a collection of 16 important bacterial pathogens. [1] Perl scripts were used to extract positions and sequences of VF from GenBank. [3] Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG) was used to update incomplete annotations. [1] More information was obtained by NCBI. VFDB was built on Linux operation systems on DELL PowerEdge 1600SC servers.[ citation needed]
