IMGT, the international ImMunoGeneTics project, is a collection of high-quality integrated databases specialising in Immunoglobulins, T cell receptors and the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) of all vertebrate species. IMGT/LIGM is a comprehensive database of fully annotated sequences of Immunoglobulins and T cell receptors from human and other vertebrates.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in ImMunoGeneTics database covering immunoglobulins and T-cell receptors should match this regular expression:
^M\d+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

M94112   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from ImMunoGeneTics database covering immunoglobulins and T-cell receptors should match this regular expression:
^imgt\.ligm:M\d+$

Example CURIE

imgt.ligm:M94112

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

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 M94112 is used to demonstrate the providers available for ImMunoGeneTics database covering immunoglobulins and T-cell receptors. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.

Additional providers curated in the Bioregistry are listed here. These are typically inherited from Identifiers.org or Prefix Commons, and need extra curation.
