Abstract

Sequence repositories have few well-annotated virus mature peptide sequences. Therefore post-translational proteolytic processing of polyproteins into mature peptides (MPs) has been performed in silico, with a new computational method, for over 200 species in 5 pathogenic virus families (Caliciviridae, Coronaviridae, Flaviviridae, Picornaviridae and Togaviridae). Using pairwise alignment with reference sequences, MPs have been annotated and their sequences made available for search, analysis and download. At publication the method had produced 156 216 sequences, a large portion of the protein sequences now available in https://www.viprbrc.org. It represents a new and comprehensive mature peptide collection. The data are available at the Virus Pathogen Resource https://www.viprbrc.org, and the software at https://github.com/VirusBRC/vipr_mat_peptide.
