Slot: entity_id

Internal (CDM) unique identifier for an entity.

URI: kb_cdm:entity_id Alias: entity_id

Applicable Classes

Name Description Modifies Slot
DateTimeValue A date or date and time value. no
Identifier A string used as a resolvable (external) identifier for an entity. This should be a CURIE in the form <database_prefix>:<local_identifier>. Bioregistry is used as the canonical reference for CURIE database prefixes; please use the prefix exactly as written in the Bioregistry entry.

If the string cannot be resolved to an URL, it should be added to the Name table instead.

This table is used for capturing external IDs. The internal CDM identifier should be used in the *_id field (e.g. feature_id, protein_id, contig_collection_id).
no
ClusterMember Relationship representing membership of a cluster. An optional score can be assigned to each cluster member. no
Sequence A sequence of nucleotides or amino acids. yes
AttributeValue The value for any value of attribute for an entity. This object can hold both the un-normalized atomic value and the structured value. no
AssociationXSupportingObject Links associations to entities to capture supporting objects in an association. May be a biological entity, such as a protein or feature, or a URL to a resource (e.g. a publication) that supports the association. Where possible, CDM identifiers should be used. yes
QuantityRangeValue A numerical range, e.g. 5-7 cm. no
Entity An entity in the CDM. yes
EntityMixin A generic class for capturing attribute-value information about an entity in a structured form. no
ControlledVocabularyTermValue A quality, described using a term from an ontology or schema with a stable persistent identifier. no
Name A string used as the name or label for an entity. This may be a primary name, alternative name, synonym, acronym, or any other label used to refer to an entity.

Identifiers that look like CURIEs or database references, but which cannot be resolved using Bioregistry or identifiers.org should be added to the Name table.
no
Geolocation A normalized value for a location on the earth's surface. Should be expressed in decimal degrees. no
ControlledTermValue A quality, described using a text string from a controlled vocabulary or enum. no
TextValue A basic string value. no
QuantityValue A simple quantity, e.g. 2 cm. no
EntityAttributeValue Class comprising all possible entity-attribute-value slots. no
