Download Resistance Database

The Download Resistance Database tool can download databases for the Find Resistance with Nucleotide DB, Find Resistance with PointFinder and Find Resistance with ShortBRED tools.

To run the tool, go to:

        Toolbox | Microbial Genomics Module (Image mgm_folder_closed_flat_16_h_p) | Databases (Image databases_folder_closed_16_n_p) | Drug Resistance Analysis (Image resistance_folder_closed_16_n_p) | Download Resistance Database (Image download_resistance_database_16_h_p)

The following databases are available (figure 19.1):

Figure 19.1: Known variants in these common pathogens can be downloaded with the Download Resistance Database.

ShortBRED Marker Databases

These databases can be used with the Find Resistance with ShortBRED tool. The databases are marker databases, containing peptide fragments that uniquely characterize sets of similar proteins, rather than a specific gene.

Nucleotide Databases

These databases can be used with the Find Resistance with Nucleotide DB tool. The databases contain full nucleotide gene sequences.

Point Mutation Databases

These databases are used with the Find Resistance with PointFinder tool. The databases contain information about mutations in genes.
