The Candida Genome Database (CGD) provides access to genomic sequence data and manually curated functional information about genes and proteins of the human pathogen Candida albicans. It collects gene names and aliases, and assigns gene ontology terms to describe the molecular function, biological process, and subcellular localization of gene products.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Candida Genome Database should match this regular expression:
^CAL\d{7}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

CAL0003079   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Candida Genome Database should match this regular expression:
^cgd:CAL\d{7}$

Example CURIE

cgd:CAL0003079

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 10 mappings to external registries for this resource with 5 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 CAL0003079 is used to demonstrate the providers available for Candida Genome Database. 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.
