The Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database is a biological database that collects and organises reference information on antimicrobial resistance genes, proteins and phenotypes.[1] The database covers all types of of drug classes and resistance mechanisms and structures its data based on an ontology. The CARD database was one of the first resources that covered antimicrobial resistance genes.[2] The resource provides tools to allow users to find potential antibiotic resistance genes in newlysequenced genomes.
