Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Semanticscience Integrated Ontology should match this regular expression:
^\d{6}$

Example Local Unique Identifier
000912   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Semanticscience Integrated Ontology should match this regular expression:
^sio:\d{6}$

Example CURIE
sio:000912
Namespace Embedded in LUI
This resource has been annotated by the Bioregistry as having a potential namespace embedded in LUI. This means that you may see local unique identifiers that include a redundant prefix and delimiter (also known as a banana) and therefore look like a CURIE. For Semanticscience Integrated Ontology, the banana looks like SIO_. Therefore, you may see local unique identifiers for this resource that look like SIO_000912 (instead of the canonical form 000912) and CURIEs for this resource that look like sio:SIO_000912 (instead of the canonical form sio:000912). The Bioregistry will automatically strip off the banana when standardizing local unique identifiers and CURIEs.

Providers

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE sio:000912 is used to demonstrate the provides available for this resource. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.
