WormBase is an online bioinformatics database of the biology and genome of the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans and other nematodes. It is used by the C. elegans research community both as an information resource and as a mode to publish and distribute their results. This collection references WormBase-accessioned entities.

WormBase
Local identifiers in Wormbase Gene should match this
regular expression:
^WB[A-Z][a-z]+\d+$
Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Wormbase Gene should match
this regular expression:
^wormbase:WB[A-Z][a-z]+\d+$
The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE
wormbase:WBGene00000001
is used to demonstrate the provides available for
wormbase
. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic
logic beyond string formatting.
