Logo for Encyclopedia of DNA Elements

The ENCODE Consortium is integrating multiple technologies and approaches in a collective effort to discover and define the functional elements encoded in the human genome, including genes, transcripts, and transcriptional regulatory regions, together with their attendant chromatin states and DNA methylation patterns.

Identifier Standards
Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Encyclopedia of DNA Elements should match this regular expression:
^ENC[A-Za-z]{2}[0-9]{3}[A-Za-z]{3}$

Example Local Unique Identifier
ENCSR163RYW   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Encyclopedia of DNA Elements should match this regular expression:
^encode:ENC[A-Za-z]{2}[0-9]{3}[A-Za-z]{3}$

Example CURIE
encode:ENCSR163RYW
Mappings to External Registries

Mappings from records in Bioregistry to external registries comprises the metaregistry. This resource has 6 mappings to external registries with 3 unique external prefixes.

Providers

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 ENCSR163RYW is used to demonstrate the providers available for Encyclopedia of DNA Elements. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
