Downloading cgMLST-rMLST profiles from the website

This is a worked example, taking you step by step through downloading cgMLST allele profiles for Salmonella on EnteroBase. The same process applies to downloading rMLST allele profiles.

This example will use serovar Agona. See this paper for more details.

  • First, Login to EnteroBase and click ‘Database Home’ for Salmonella

  • From the database dashboard, click Search Species

  • In the search window, do the following:

  • Set experimental data as cgMLST

  • You can look at individual records using the Eye

  • Right click on the cgMLST data (the window) and from the drop down click save all.

  • It takes a bit for the data to be downloaded (~3600 alleles for each genome) when its done, you’ll be prompted for a save file name. The file will be save in your ‘Downloads’ folder of your browser.

  • It is a tab-delimited text file which you could load into Excel.
