Institut Pasteur MLST databases and software

This page provides access to genotypic data for Bordetella isolates based on Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) and core genome MLST (cgMLST). See references for more details.

ISO 9001: We are pleased to announce that the BIGSdb-Pasteur platform has obtained ISO9001 certification in March 2026, and has been included in the scope of the CRBIP ISO 9001:2015 certification.

Alleles & profiles database

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).

Isolates & genomes database

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