anyone interested to exchange data and/or utilities to analyze/organize
influenza-sequence databases ?

suggest collaboration
Perhaps this sequence collection may be interesting and useful joined in collaborative effort such as the Pandemic Influenza Digital Archive as described here.

I had had no idea that such a thing existed.
Why was it kept secret ?
Aren't scientists being appropriately "rewarded" for publishing
their stuff ?
Alas, for this pandemic it comes too late.
Good however that it turned out to be "mild".
Maybe Moren's decision to publish was made at a time
when it looked worse...Comment

High Throughput Full Genome Sequencing of 2009 Swine H1N1 Isolates From World Wide Origins
Huo-Shu Houng, Ph.D., Viral Disease, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research
Novel 2009 inluenza A (H1N1) is a new flu virus of swine origin that was first detected in Mexico and the United States in March/April 2009. We systematically investigate the potential of ultra-deep pyrosequencing to determine and assemble full genome sequences of H1N1 viruses from world-wide geographic origins. A robust RT-PCR protocol was established to efficiently amplify across the boards of all 8 2009 novel H1N1 RNAs into sufficient cDNA quantities using the Roche 454 FLX system.

are the sequences available ?
I have what is at genbank, but it's tedious to format,align,correct,sort etc.
it would be useful to share such improved databases
and provide upatesComment
-
as it happens the Walter Reed people had to resequence all their
influenza sequences. Apparently it's not so easy with high-throughput,
to assign the fragments to the correct virusesComment

Thank you for the update. Do you have any online references to updated material? Can you provide us with any further description on the progress of database curation on this topic and how such databases might be accessed?Comment
-
I assume they will submit updated sequences
but it can take a while
watch here for daily flu-updates:

Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
The systematic characterization of the human proteome has...07-20-2026, 11:48 AM -
Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.
There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...07-08-2026, 05:17 AM
