Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Microarray experimental conditions should match this regular expression:
^\w+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

ArrayGroup   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Microarray experimental conditions should match this regular expression:
^MO:\w+$

Example CURIE

MO:ArrayGroup

Pattern for RDF URIs

Mappings from records in Bioregistry to external registries comprises the metaregistry. This resource has 8 mappings to external registries 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 ArrayGroup is used to demonstrate the providers available for Microarray experimental conditions. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
