The Brenda tissue ontology is a structured controlled vocabulary eastablished to identify the source of an enzyme cited in the Brenda enzyme database. It comprises terms of tissues, cell lines, cell types and cell cultures from uni- and multicellular organisms.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in BRENDA tissue / enzyme source should match this regular expression:
^\d{7}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

0000590   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from BRENDA tissue / enzyme source should match this regular expression:
^bto:\d{7}$

Example CURIE

bto:0000590

MIRIAM Namespace Embedded in LUI

The legacy MIRIAM standard for generating CURIEs with this resource includes the namespaceEmbeddedInLUI as true. The actual part that gets prefixed before the local unique identifier regex, otherwise known as the banana, is BTO:. Therefore, you might see local unique identifiers written out as CURIEs.

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 13 mappings to external registries for bto with 3 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE bto:0000590 is used to demonstrate the provides available for bto. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.
