The GOA (Gene Ontology Annotation) project provides high-quality Gene Ontology (GO) annotations to proteins in the UniProt Knowledgebase (UniProtKB) and International Protein Index (IPI). This involves electronic annotation and the integration of high-quality manual GO annotation from all GO Consortium model organism groups and specialist groups.
This resource is a provider. This means that
while it may have its own prefix, it actually reuses the identifiers provided by the
uniprot
prefix. For all use cases, you should use uniprot
instead of goa
.
goa
Local identifiers in Gene Ontology Annotation Database should match this
regular expression:
^(([A-N,R-Z][0-9][A-Z][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9])|([O,P,Q][0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9]))|(URS[0-9A-F]{10}(_[0-9]+){0,1})|(EBI-[0-9]+)$
Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Gene Ontology Annotation Database should match
this regular expression:
^goa:(([A-N,R-Z][0-9][A-Z][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9])|([O,P,Q][0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][A-Z, 0-9][0-9]))|(URS[0-9A-F]{10}(_[0-9]+){0,1})|(EBI-[0-9]+)$
The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are
6 mappings to external registries for goa
with
2 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE
goa:P12345
is used to demonstrate the provides available for
goa
. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic
logic beyond string formatting.
