Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in ChEMBL should match this regular expression:
^CHEMBL\d+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

CHEMBL465070   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from ChEMBL should match this regular expression:
^chembl\.compound:CHEMBL\d+$

Example CURIE

chembl.compound:CHEMBL465070

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 6 mappings to external registries for this resource with 4 unique external prefixes.

When using this resource in RDF, the following URI format should be used:

http://rdf.ebi.ac.uk/resource/chembl/molecule/$1

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier CHEMBL465070 is used to demonstrate the providers available for ChEMBL. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.

Additional providers curated in the Bioregistry are listed here. These are typically inherited from Identifiers.org or Prefix Commons, and need extra curation.
