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.
