The China National Center for Bioinformation's (CNCB) Genome Warehouse (GWH) is a public repository holding genetic information for a wide range of species including humans, plants, animals, and microorganisms. Identifiers in this resource correspond to genomes of various species. The goal of the resource is to make genomic data accessible to researchers in areas like precision medicine and biotechnology.

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 167047 is used to demonstrate the providers available for CNCB Genome Warehouse. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
