SARS-CoV2 DB

SARS-CoV2 DB is a manually curated, freely accessible database of SARS-CoV-2 genomic and contextual data, provided by ELIXIR Norway. It was established to support reproducible and transparent research on SARS-CoV-2 by providing consistently annotated genomic records with standardized metadata.

The portal contains high-quality curated genomes with rich metadata, alongside links to visualization and bioinformatics tools from ELIXIR Norway and other ELIXIR member nodes. It is intended for researchers requiring reliable, uniformly annotated SARS-CoV-2 genomic data for comparative and downstream analysis.

Key Features

• Curated genomes — 865 SARS-CoV-2 genomes, each annotated with 44 metadata fields
• Manual curation — every record is reviewed for quality and consistency, ensuring high data reliability
• Standardized metadata — uniform annotation across all entries enables comparative analysis
• Linked tools — direct links to visualization and bioinformatics resources from ELIXIR Norway and partner nodes
• Open access — all data and resources are freely available without registration barriers

Getting Started

1. Visit the SARS-CoV2 DB portal to browse available genomes
