TopFIND is a database of protein termini, terminus modifications and their proteolytic processing in the species: Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Arabidopsis thaliana, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli.

This resource is a provider. This means that while it may have its own prefix, it actually reuses the identifiers provided by the uniprot prefix. For all use cases, you should use uniprot instead of topfind.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in TopFind should match this regular expression:
^([A-N,R-Z][0-9][A-Z][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9])|([O,P,Q][0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9])$

Example Local Unique Identifier

Q9UKQ2   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from TopFind should match this regular expression:
^topfind:([A-N,R-Z][0-9][A-Z][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9])|([O,P,Q][0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9])$

Example CURIE

topfind:Q9UKQ2

Provides

uniprot

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 5 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 Q9UKQ2 is used to demonstrate the providers available for TopFind. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
