The metaregistry contains extra information about prefixes in the main registry that are themselves registries. The metaregistry describes their various capabilities such as their ability to act as a resolver.

| AberOWL | aberowl |
AberOWL is a framework for ontology-based access to biological data. It consists of a repository of bio-ontologies, a set of webservices which provide access to OWL(-EL) reasoning over the ontologies, and several frontends which utilise the ontology repository and reasoning services to provide access to specific biological datasets. |

| Basic Register of Thesauri, Ontologies & Classifications | bartoc |
The Basic Register of Thesauri, Ontologies & Classifications (BARTOC) is a database of Knowledge Organization Systems and KOS related registries. The main goal of BARTOC is to list as many Knowledge Organization Systems as possible at one place in order to achieve greater visibility, highlight their features, make them searchable and comparable, and foster knowledge sharing. BARTOC includes any kind of KOS from any subject area, in any language, any publication format, and any form of accessibility. BARTOC’s search interface is available in 20 European languages and provides two search options: Basic Search by keywords, and Advanced Search by taxonomy terms. A circle of editors has gathered around BARTOC from all across Europe and BARTOC has been approved by the International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO). |

| Integbio | integbio |
Integbio Database Catalog provides whereabouts information (URL), database description, biological species and other attributes (metadata) of Japanese and international life science databases to make it easier for users to find databases they need. This catalog has been developed as a part of the integration of life science databases promoted by four ministries in Japan: the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology (MEXT), The Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare (MHLW), the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries (MAFF), and the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry of Japan (METI). (from https://integbio.jp/dbcatalog/en/about) |
| Linked Open Vocabularies | lov |
A vocabulary in LOV gathers definitions of a set of classes and properties (together simply called terms of the vocabulary), useful to describe specific types of things, or things in a given domain or industry, or things at large but for a specific usage. Terms of vocabularies also provide the links in linked data, in the above case between a Person and a City. The definitions of terms provided by the vocabularies bring clear semantics to descriptions and links, thanks to the formal language they use (some dialect of RDF such as RDFS or OWL). In short, vocabularies provide the semantic glue enabling Data to become meaningful Data. [from https://lov.linkeddata.es/dataset/lov/about] |
| Identifiers.org namespace | miriam |
Identifiers.org is an established resolving system that enables the referencing of data for the scientific community, with a current focus on the Life Sciences domain. |
| Name-to-Thing | n2t |
An ARK resolver as well as resolver built with common prefixes as in Identifiers.org |
| NCBI Registry | ncbi.resource |
A database-specific registry supporting curation in the NCBI GenBank and related NCBI resources |
| OBO Foundry ontology | obofoundry |
An ontology in the OBO foundry, not exactly the same as the obo namespace |
| EBI Ontology Lookup Service | ols |
The Ontology Lookup Service (OLS) is a repository for biomedical ontologies that aims to provide a single point of access to the latest ontology versions. |
| OntoBee | ontobee |
Ontobee is aimed to facilitate ontology data sharing, visualization, query, integration, and analysis. |
| Pathguide | pathguide |
Pathguide contains information about 325 biological related resources and molecular interaction related resources. |
| Prefix.cc | prefixcc |
A web-developer centric archive of prefixes and URI prefixes |
| Prefix Commons | prefixcommons |

| TogoID Ontology | togoid |
TogoID is an ID conversion service implementing unique features with an intuitive web interface and an API for programmatic access. TogoID supports datasets from various biological categories such as gene, protein, chemical compound, pathway, disease, etc. TogoID users can perform exploratory multistep conversions to find a path among IDs. To guide the interpretation of biological meanings in the conversions, we crafted an ontology that defines the semantics of the dataset relations. (from https://togoid.dbcls.jp/) |
| UniProt Resource | uniprot.resource |
The cross-references section of UniProtKB entries displays explicit and implicit links to databases such as nucleotide sequence databases, model organism databases and genomics and proteomics resources. |
| Wikidata Entity | wikidata.entity |

| Wikidata Property | wikidata.property |
Wikidata is a free and open knowledge base that can be read and edited by both humans and machines. Wikidata acts as central storage for the structured data of its Wikimedia sister projects including Wikipedia, Wikivoyage, Wiktionary, Wikisource, and others. |
| Zazuko Prefix Server | zazuko |
This service fills a gap between services like prefix.cc and LOV or looking up the original vocabulary specification. Not all vocabularies (or schema or ontology, whatever you want to call them) provide an HTML view. If you resolve some of the common prefixes all you get back is some RDF serialization which is not ideal. (from <https://prefix.zazuko.com/about>) |
