Identifier Standards

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers: Local identifiers in Molecular Signatures Database should match this regular expression:
^M\d+$
Example Local Unique Identifier: M1 Resolve
Pattern for CURIES: Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Molecular Signatures Database should match this regular expression:
^msigdb:M\d+$
Example CURIE: msigdb:M1

Providers

Suggest

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 M1 is used to demonstrate the providers available for Molecular Signatures Database. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.

Provider Name	Provider Code	URI
Molecular Signatures Database	`msigdb`	https://www.gsea-msigdb.org/gsea/msigdb/human/geneset/M1
Bioregistry	`bioregistry`	https://bioregistry.io/msigdb:M1

Extra Providers

Additional providers curated in the Bioregistry are listed here. These are typically inherited from Identifiers.org or Prefix Commons, and need extra curation.
