CryptoDB is one of the databases that can be accessed through the EuPathDB (http://EuPathDB.org; formerly ApiDB) portal, covering eukaryotic pathogens of the genera Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Leishmania, Neospora, Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Trichomonas and Trypanosoma. While each of these groups is supported by a taxon-specific database built upon the same infrastructure, the EuPathDB portal offers an entry point to all these resources, and the opportunity to leverage orthology for searches across genera.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in CryptoDB should match this regular expression:
^\w+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

cgd7_230   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from CryptoDB should match this regular expression:
^cryptodb:\w+$

Example CURIE

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 7 mappings to external registries for this resource with 4 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 cgd7_230 is used to demonstrate the providers available for CryptoDB. 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.
