Database of one-to-one ortholog information provided by the NCBI as a subset of their Gene resource. Used for users to access ortholog information for over 1000 species of vertebrates and arthropods.

Comment

We do not currently have the source code for our ortholog resource available publicly, although we are looking at how to split it off and make it available in the next year. We are now in the process of adding this tag to the INSDC list for use in annotations, so I'd like to mirror that tag in bioregistry.

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from NCBI Orthologs should match this regular expression:

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 2 is used to demonstrate the providers available for NCBI Orthologs. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
