Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus should match this regular expression:
^G(PL|SM|SE|DS)\d+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

GDS1234   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus should match this regular expression:
^geo:G(PL|SM|SE|DS)\d+$

Example CURIE

geo:GDS1234

Resources mentioned in "Sharing biological data: why, when, and how"

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 9 mappings to external registries for this resource with 5 unique external prefixes.

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 GDS1234 is used to demonstrate the providers available for NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus. 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.
