Posters

Poster presentations at ISMB 2020 will be presented virtually. Authors will pre-record their poster talk (5-7 minutes) and will upload it to the virtual conference platform site along with a PDF of their poster. All registered conference participants will have access to the poster and presentation through the conference and content until October 31, 2020. There are Q&A opportunities through a chat function to allow interaction between presenters and participants.

Preliminary information on preparing your poster and poster talk are available at: https://www.iscb.org/ismb2020-general/presenterinfo#posters

Ideally authors should be available for interactive chat during the times noted below:

Short Abstract: Recognising the urgency of providing the latest information on proteins relevant to COVID-19, UniProt created a COVID-19 portal for early access to this data independent of the main UniProt release cycle. The portal provides SARS-CoV-2 annotated protein sequences, closest SARS sequences from SARS 2003, human sequences relevant to the biology of viral infection like receptor proteins and enzymes, ProtVista visualization of protein sequence features, links to sequence analysis tools and links to relevant resources. The portal also provides a way for users to contribute publications, access all community-submitted publications and link to LitCovid for relevant publications.

Expert curation of the SARS-CoV-2 proteome was carried out initially based on the well-studied SARS-CoV virus, enabling the rapid release of the SARS-CoV-2 proteome, and since continued capturing the latest relevant publications. Rule-based automatic annotation also allows us to add information from a broader taxonomic range of viruses, where relevant.

We have aligned efforts with other biomolecular resources to ensure data connectivity between proteins and genes, structural information, protein interactions and pathways, drug-target studies and COVID-19 publications. We have also engaged with large initiatives like the European COVID-19 Data Platform which aims to enable collection and sharing of available research data.
