The ENCODE Consortium is integrating multiple technologies and approaches in a collective effort to discover and define the functional elements encoded in the human genome, including genes, transcripts, and transcriptional regulatory regions, together with their attendant chromatin states and DNA methylation patterns.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Encyclopedia of DNA Elements should match this regular expression:
^ENC[A-Za-z]{2}[0-9]{3}[A-Za-z]{3}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

ENCSR163RYW   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Encyclopedia of DNA Elements should match this regular expression:
^encode:ENC[A-Za-z]{2}[0-9]{3}[A-Za-z]{3}$

Example CURIE

encode:ENCSR163RYW

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 6 mappings to external registries for this resource with 3 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 ENCSR163RYW is used to demonstrate the providers available for Encyclopedia of DNA Elements. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
