FunctionDISEASE/ TISSUE SPECIFIC, SPECIES: virus, http://vita.mbc.nctu.edu.tw/, Online resource comprising of virus data retrieved from databases such as miRBase- ICTV- VirGen- VBRC- and miRNAMap. Provides access to several tools to study microRNA and virus interaction., Hsu PW- Lin LZ- Hsu SD- Hsu JB- Huang HD. ViTa: prediction of host microRNAs targets on viruses. Nucleic Acids Res. 2007 Jan;35(Database issue):D381-5. Epub 2006 Dec 5. PubMed PMID: 17148483, 2007, 100, Online/ downloadable , I. SPECIES SUPPORTED INCLUDE: Virus- human- mouse- rat- chicken II. QUERY OR INPUT DATA: 1. Targets: Virus or Host miRNA: enter mature microRNA name- source (ICTV DB- miRBase- miRNAMap- VirGen VBRC)- prediction tool (miRanda- TargetScan). 2. Browse: known virus targets- disease conditions- genome types- virus family.3. Search by keywords( virus or miRNA)- accession number- disease- infected tissue of viruses- conserved regions in viruses (Run by BLAST2). III. OUTPUT DATA: depending on the type of analysis chosen details on virus- family- target site- rank score- microRNA- conserved regions etc. are depicted. Option to view map of target results is also provided.
