The MicroScope virulence database has been built upon VFDB and VirulenceFinder data.
VFDB virulence factor classification has been completed as best as possible with new terms and gene associations. The database is divided into 3 categories: VFDB experimentally demonstrated data, VirulenceFinder, E. coli main
virulence genes. Results are obtained by running BLASTp on organism proteins against MicroScope virulence database.
