CryptoDB is one of the databases that can be accessed through the EuPathDB (http://EuPathDB.org; formerly ApiDB) portal, covering eukaryotic pathogens of the genera Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Leishmania, Neospora, Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Trichomonas and Trypanosoma. While each of these groups is supported by a taxon-specific database built upon the same infrastructure, the EuPathDB portal offers an entry point to all these resources, and the opportunity to leverage orthology for searches across genera.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in CryptoDB should match this regular expression:
^\w+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

cgd7_230   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from CryptoDB should match this regular expression:
^cryptodb:\w+$

Example CURIE

cryptodb:cgd7_230

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 6 mappings to external registries for cryptodb with 3 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE cryptodb:cgd7_230 is used to demonstrate the provides available for cryptodb. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.
