We have a plasmid field in Strain curation, and we have actual plasmids in the DSC. Those do not necessarily match but we tried in recent years, to only add to strains when plasmid is in database. Currently, plasmids have internal database IDs (number 1-1000), but no real ID. But Plasmid Names are UNIQUE
When Plasmid Name in strain record match plasmids in database, link out to plasmid.
These links, as those of parental strains, let us also make new queries. Here, "what strains have been transformed with X plasmid"
