Influenza virus infection is a major threat to public health in the United States, resulting in over 200,000 hospitalizations and 30,000 deaths each year. The Influenza Virus Genome Project is providing researchers with a growing collection of virus sequences essential to the identification of the genetic determinants of influenza pathogenicity. National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) provides online tools for the analysis of these and other influenza sequences in GenBank.
