The goal of the Systems Biology Ontology is to develop controlled vocabularies and ontologies tailored specifically for the kinds of problems being faced in Systems Biology, especially in the context of computational modeling. SBO is a project of the BioModels.net effort.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Systems Biology Ontology should match this regular expression:
^\d{7}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

0000485   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Systems Biology Ontology should match this regular expression:
^SBO:\d{7}$

Example CURIE

SBO:0000485

MIRIAM Namespace Embedded in LUI

The legacy MIRIAM standard for generating CURIEs with this resource includes the namespaceEmbeddedInLUI as true. The actual part that gets prefixed before the local unique identifier regex, otherwise known as the banana, is SBO:. Therefore, you might see local unique identifiers written out as CURIEs.

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 10 mappings to external registries for sbo.

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