Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local unique identifiers in Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Registry should match this regular expression:
^[A-Z]{2,6}(e|i)[A-Za-z0-9]{3}-[A-Z]{1,2}(-[A-Za-z0-9]{1,2})?$

Example Local Unique Identifier

BCRTi001-A   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Registry should match this regular expression:
^hpscreg:[A-Z]{2,6}(e|i)[A-Za-z0-9]{3}-[A-Z]{1,2}(-[A-Za-z0-9]{1,2})?$

Example CURIE

hpscreg:BCRTi001-A

Mappings from records in Semantic Farm to external registries comprises the metaregistry. This resource has 5 mappings to external registries with 3 unique external prefixes.

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier BCRTi001-A is used to demonstrate the providers available for Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Registry. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
