The ABCD (for AntiBodies Chemically Defined) database is a repository of sequenced antibodies, integrating curated information about the antibody and its antigen with cross-links to standardized databases of chemical and protein entities. It is freely available to the academic community, accessible through the ExPASy server (https://web.expasy.org/abcd/). The ABCD database aims at helping to improve reproducibility in academic research by providing a unique, unambiguous identifier associated to each antibody sequence. It also allows to determine rapidly if a sequenced antibody is available for a given antigen.
ABCD（化学定义抗体）数据库是一个抗体序列库，整合了抗体及其抗原的 curated 信息，并与化学和蛋白质实体的标准化数据库进行了交叉链接。它免费向学术界开放，可以通过 ExPASy 服务器（https://web.expasy.org/abcd/）访问。ABCD 数据库旨在通过为每个抗体序列提供唯一、明确的标识符，帮助提高学术研究的可重复性。它还可以快速确定给定抗原是否有可用的测序抗体。
