Influenza Research Database(IRD) 26 September 2011 Richard H. Scheuermann, Ph.D. Department of Pathology U.T. Southwestern Medical Center
History of IRD APR2007 SEP2004 DEC2009
Influenza Virus Orthomyxoviridae family Negative-strand RNA Segmented Enveloped 8 RNA segments encode 11 proteins Classified based on serology of HA and NA
Public Health Impact of Influenza • Seasonal flu epidemics occur yearly during the fall/ winter months and result in 3-5 million cases of severe illness worldwide. • More than 200,000 people are hospitalized each year with seasonal flu-related complications in the U.S. • Approximately 36,000 deaths occur due to seasonal flu each year in the U.S. • Populations at highest risk are children under age 2, adults age 65 and older, and groups with other co-morbidities. • Pandemics • 1918 Spanish flu (H1N1); 20 - 100 million deaths • 1957 Asian flu (H2N2); 1 - 1.5 million deaths • 1968 Hong Kong flu (H3N2); 750,000 - 1 million deaths • 2009 Swine origin (H1N1); > 16,000 deaths as of March 2010 Source: World Health Organization - http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs211/en/index.html

SF definition • SF can be defined for any region of interest because of structural or functional properties • Defined based on experimentation reported in the literature, 3D protein structures (PDB records), UniProt annotations and IEDB epitope records • Defined by the specific amino acid positions in the polypeptide chain • Manually curated and externally validated
IRD Summary • Funded by U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) • Free and open access with no use restrictions • Developed by a team of research scientists, bioinformaticians and professional software developers • Comprehensive collection of public data • Novel derived data, novel analytical tools, unique functions • Integration – Integration – Integration • www.fludb.org
Challenges and Future Directions • Inconsistent annotations • Competition with other influenza-focused resources • GISAID collaboration • Host systems biology and “omics” data
