Welcome to the Flavivirus-GLUE wiki!
Flavivirid-GLUE is a GLUE project for the flavivirids (family Flaviviridae).
The Flaviviridae comprise enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses, many of which pose serious risks to human health on a global scale. Arthropod-borne flaviviruses such as Zika virus (ZIKV), Dengue virus (DENV), and yellow fever virus (YFV) are the causative agents of large-scale outbreaks that result in millions of human infections every year, while the bloodborne hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of chronic liver disease.
