The metaregistry contains metadata about registries including their names, descriptions, and their various capabilities such as their ability to act as a resolver.
| Name | Metaprefix | Description |
| 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. |
| AgroPortal | agroportal |
A vocabulary and ontology repository for agronomy and related domains. |
| BioContext | biocontext |
BioContext contains modular JSON-LD contexts for bioinformatics data. |
| Biolink Model Registry | biolink |
A modeling paradigm-specific registry of prefixes and their URL expansions |
| BioPortal Prefixes | bioportal |
The BioPortal is a less stringent registry of biomedical ontologies than the OBO Foundry |
| Bioregistry | bioregistry |
The Bioregistry is integrative meta-registry of biological databases, ontologies, and nomenclatures that is backed by an open database. |
| Cellosaurus Registry | cellosaurus |
The set of prefixes used in the Cellosaurus resource |
| Chemical Information Ontology | cheminf |
Contains entries for various database identifiers |
| Crop Ontology Curation Tool | cropoct |
The Crop Ontology (CO) current objective is to compile validated concepts along with their inter-relationships on anatomy, structure and phenotype of Crops, on trait measurement and methods as well as on Germplasm with the multi-crop passport terms |
| EcoPortal | ecoportal |
The LifeWatch ERIC repository of semantic resources for the ecological domain. |
| EDAM Ontology | edam |
EDAM is a comprehensive ontology of well-established, familiar concepts that are prevalent within computational biology, bioinformatics, and bioimage informatics. EDAM includes types of data and data identifiers, data formats, operations, and topics related to data analysis in life sciences. EDAM provides a set of concepts with preferred terms and synonyms, related terms, definitions, and other information - organised into a simple and intuitive hierarchy for convenient use. |
| FAIRSharing | fairsharing |
A curated, informative and educational resource on data and metadata standards, inter-related to databases and data policies. |
| Gene Ontology Registry | go |
A database-specific registry supporting curation in the Gene Ontology |
| Identifiers.org | miriam |
The Identifiers.org Resolution Service provides consistent access to life science data using Compact Identifiers. Compact Identifiers consist of an assigned unique prefix and a local provider designated accession number (prefix:accession). |
| Name-to-Thing | n2t |
An ARK resolver as well as resolver built with common prefixes as in Identifiers.org |
| National Center for Biotechnology Information Registry | ncbi |
A database-specific registry supporting curation in the NCBI GenBank and related NCBI resources |
| OBO Foundry | obofoundry |
The mission of the OBO Foundry is to develop a family of interoperable ontologies that are both logically well-formed and scientifically accurate. |
| 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. |
| Prefix.cc | prefixcc |
A web-developer centric archive of prefixes and URI prefixes |
| Prefix Commons | prefixcommons |
A registry of commonly used prefixes in the life sciences and linked data |
| Registry of Research Data Repositories | re3data |
Re3data is a global registry of research data repositories that covers research data repositories from different academic disciplines. |
| UniProt Cross-ref database | uniprot |
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 Property | wikidata |
An open, community-curated knowledgebase that contains several properties corresponding to resources listed in other biomedical registries. |
