The purpose of the OMIT ontology is to establish data exchange standards and common data elements in the microRNA (miR) domain. Biologists (cell biologists in particular) and bioinformaticians can make use of OMIT to leverage emerging semantic technologies in knowledge acquisition and discovery for more effective identification of important roles performed by miRs in humans' various diseases and biological processes (usually through miRs' respective target genes).

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Ontology for MicroRNA Target should match this regular expression:
^\d{7}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

0000069   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Ontology for MicroRNA Target should match this regular expression:
^omit:\d{7}$

Example CURIE

omit:0000069

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 9 mappings to external registries for omit with 2 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE omit:0000069 is used to demonstrate the provides available for omit. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.
