Suggested Ontology for Pharmacogenomics Resource Report Resource Website |
Suggested Ontology for Pharmacogenomics (RRID:SCR_003497) | SOPHARM, SO-Pharm | controlled vocabulary, data or information resource, ontology | A domain ontology implemented in OWL-DL, which proposes a formal description of pharmacogenomic knowledge. It articulates different ontologies that represent complementary sub-domains of pharmacogenomics, i.e. related to genotype, phenotype, drugs, and clinical trials. SO-Pharm enables the representation of pharmacogenomic relationships between a drug, a genomic variation and a phenotype trait. In addition, it enables the representation of a patient and more largely a panel included in trials, and populations. SO-Pharm enables the representation of measured items on patients such as results from the observation of a phenotype trait or of genomic variations. SO-Pharm supports knowledge about pharmacogenomic hypothesis, case study, and investigations in pharmacogenomics. SO-Pharm is designed to facilitate data integration and knowledge discovery in pharmacogenomics. In addition it provides a consistent articulation of ontologies of pharmacogenomic sub-domains. | owl, pharmacogenomics, health, pathological, molecular, cellular, organismal, multi-organismal, drug, genomic variation, phenotype, trait, hypothesis, case study, investigation |

Subcellular Anatomy Ontology Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Subcellular Anatomy Ontology (RRID:SCR_003486) | SAO, NIF Subcellular | controlled vocabulary, data or information resource, ontology | Ontology that describes structures from the dimensional range encompassing cellular and subcellular structure, supracellular domains, and macromolecules. It is built according to ontology development best practices (re-use of existing ontologies; formal definitions of terms; use of foundational ontologies). It describes the parts of neurons and glia and how these parts come together to define supracellular structures such as synapses and neuropil. Molecular specializations of each compartment and cell type are identified. The SAO was designed with the goal of providing a means to annotate cellular and subcellular data obtained from light and electron microscopy, including assigning macromolecules to their appropriate subcellular domains. The SAO thus provides a bridge between ontologies that describe molecular species and those concerned with more gross anatomical scales. Because it is intended to integrate into ontological efforts at these other scales, particular care was taken to construct the ontology in a way that supports such integration. | electron microscopy, cellular structure, glial cell, light microscopy, macromolecule, nervous system, neuroanatomy, neuronal cell, neuropil, subcellular anatomy, subcellular structure, supracellular structure, synapse, owl, anatomy, sub-cellular, cellular component, cell, mesoscale |

Vertebrate Taxonomy Ontology Resource Report Resource Website |
Vertebrate Taxonomy Ontology (RRID:SCR_003518) | VTO | controlled vocabulary, data or information resource, ontology | An ontology that includes both extinct and extant vertebrates, aiming to provide one comprehensive hierarchy. The hierarchy backbone for extant taxa is based on the NCBI taxonomy. Since the NCBI taxonomy only includes species associated with archived genetic data, to complement this, they also incorporate taxonomic information across the vertebrates from the Paleobiology Database (PaleoDB). The Teleost Taxonomy Ontology (TTO) and AmphibiaWeb (AWeb) are incorporated to provide a more authoritative hierarchy and a richer set of names for specific taxonomic groups. | owl, biology, evolution, obo-taxonomy, fossil, vertebrate, taxonmy, ontology |

Human Developmental Anatomy Ontology abstract version 1 Resource Report Resource Website |
Human Developmental Anatomy Ontology abstract version 1 (RRID:SCR_010323) | EHDAA | controlled vocabulary, data or information resource, ontology | A structured controlled vocabulary of stage-specific anatomical structures of the human. It has been designed to mesh with the mouse anatomy and incorporates each Carnegie stage of development (CS1-20). The abstract version of the human developmental anatomy ontology compresses all the tissues present over Carnegie stages 1-20 into a single hierarchy. The heart, for example, is present from Carnegie Stage 9 onwards and is thus represented by 12 EHDA IDs (one for each stage). In the abstract mouse, it has a single ID so that the abstract term given as just ''heart'' really means ''heart (CS 9-20)''. Timing details will be added to the abstract version of the ontology in a future release. | obo | is listed by: BioPortal | nlx_157429 | SCR_010323 | 2026-09-05 06:26:39 | 0 | |||||||||

G Protein-Coupled Receptor BioAssays Ontology Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
G Protein-Coupled Receptor BioAssays Ontology (RRID:SCR_010324) | BAO-GPCR | controlled vocabulary, data or information resource, ontology | Ontology (http://www.bioassayontology.org/bao_gpcr) that describes pharmacology, biochemistry and physiology of these important and therapeutically promising class of academic and pharmaceutical research targets. Incorporation and comparison of various small molecule screening data sets, such as those deposited in PubChem, ChEMBL, KEGG, PDSP, and/or IUPHAR databases, requires a formalized electronic organization system. In order to bridge the gap between the overflow of HTS data and the bottleneck of integrated analysis tools, herein, we provide the first comprehensive GPCR ontology. The development and utility of GPCR ontology was based on previously developed BioAssay Ontology (BAO). The GPCR ontology contains information about biochemical, pharmacological, and functional properties of individual GPCRs as well as GPCR-selective ligands inclusive of their HTS screening results and other records. This provides the first all-inclusive GPCR ontology with all available data to model the relationship between the GPCR binding sites and their physiologic and pharmacologic role in physiology via small molecule chemical structures. We developed this system using emerging semantic technologies, by leveraging existing and descriptive domain level ontologies. | owl |
