The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 13 mappings to external registries for dbsnp with 7 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE dbsnp:rs121909098 is used to demonstrate the provides available for dbsnp. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.

Additional providers curated in the Bioregistry are listed here.
