This page provides access to Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) data for Escherichia coli isolates, using the MLST scheme developed at Institut Pasteur. Please see references for more details. For a correspondence of Pasteur's scheme sequence types (ST) with STs of other schemes, please refer to Clermont et al. 2015.

⚠ Maintenance: A BIGSdb-Pasteur maintenance is scheduled on Tuesday, May 12th (Central European Time). During this period, the server and API will be unavailable. Please note that job submission will not be available and all unfinished jobs will be killed. Sorry for any inconvenience. If any questions, contact us

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.
