This database hosts both the original MLST scheme described in Homan et al. 2002 J Clin Microbiol 40:1963-71 and the Bezdíček scheme described in Bezdíček et al. 2023 Microbiol Spectr 11:e0510722.

Database curated by shakeel.mowlaboccusuwa.edu.au (Shakeel Mowlaboccus) and Bezdicek.Matejfnbrno.cz (Matej Bezdíček).

Typing

The typing database contains nomenclature - allele definitions that provide an identifier for every unique allele sequence, and MLST profiles that index each unique combination of alleles with a sequence type (ST).

Isolate collection

The isolate database consists of isolate records containing provenance and phenotype information linked to molecular typing information. These records may also include genome assemblies.

Genome collection

A subset of records within the isolate database may contain genomes assemblies. You can access these from the isolate database by filtering on sequence bin size in a query.
