Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Human Protein Atlas tissue profile information should match this regular expression:
^ENSG\d{11}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

ENSG00000026508   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Human Protein Atlas tissue profile information should match this regular expression:
^hpa:ENSG\d{11}$

Example CURIE

hpa:ENSG00000026508

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 8 mappings to external registries for hpa with 4 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE hpa:ENSG00000026508 is used to demonstrate the provides available for hpa. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.
