Abstract
Plasmid sequences are central to a myriad of microbial functions and processes. Here, we have compiled a database of complete plasmid sequences and associated metadata curated from both NCBI's recent genome database update, which includes plasmids as organisms, and all available annotated bacterial genomes. The resultant database contains 10,892 complete plasmid sequences and associated metadata.
Highlights
Plasmid sequences are central to a myriad of microbial functions and processes
Genomic assemblies labeled as partially complete or in contigs were not included to ensure that only complete plasmid sequences were included in our final database
Sequences that were already included as part of the original plasmid downloads, as identified by their accession or locus numbers, were removed as duplicates
Summary
Plasmid sequences are central to a myriad of microbial functions and processes. Here, we have compiled a database of complete plasmid sequences and associated metadata curated from both NCBI’s recent genome database update, which includes plasmids as organisms, and all available annotated bacterial genomes. In addition to curating the predefined NCBI plasmid database, we extracted plasmid sequences from bacterial genomes with complete assemblies in NCBI’s prokaryotic genome database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/browse#!/ prokaryotes/).
