Motivation: The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a significant public health threat worldwide. The virus is highly variable and evolves rapidly, making it an elusive target for the immune system and for vaccine and drug design. Presently some 25,000 HCV sequences have been published. A central website that provides annotated sequences and analysis tools will be helpful to HCV scientists worldwide. Results: The HCV sequence database collects and annotates sequence data, and provides them to the public via a website that contains a user-friendly search interface and a large number of sequence analysis tools, following the model of the highly regarded Los Alamos HIV database. The HCV sequence database was officially launched in September 2003. Since then, usage has steadily increased, and is now at an average of about 140 visits per day from distinct IP addresses. Availability: The HCV website can be accessed via http://hcv.lanl.gov and http://hcv-db.org.
