REBASE is a comprehensive database of information about restriction enzymes, DNA methyltransferases and related proteins involved in the biological process of restriction-modification (R-M). It contains fully referenced information about recognition and cleavage sites, isoschizomers, neoschizomers, commercial availability, methylation sensitivity, crystal and sequence data.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in REBASE Enzyme Number should match this regular expression:
^\d+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

101   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from REBASE Enzyme Number should match this regular expression:
^rebase:\d+$

Example CURIE

rebase:101

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 12 mappings to external registries for this resource with 8 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 101 is used to demonstrate the providers available for REBASE Enzyme Number. 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.
