Ontology - essentially, a formal description of objects and their interrelationships Described using RDF Schema and/or OWL.

Examples:

  1. Dublin Core provides a vocabulary to describe bibliographic metadata
  2. Gene Ontology provides a controlled vocabulary to describe gene and gene product attributes in any organism. GO terms are organized in directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), which differ from hierarchies in that a 'child' (more specialized term) can have many 'parents' (less specialized terms). GO terms are connected by 'is a' (generalizations) and 'part of' (composition) relationships.
  3. Sequence Ontology: features on a nucleotide or protein sequence
  4. BioPAX: biological pathway data
  5. UniProt protein sequence and annotation data in RDF format. UniProt OWL Ontology
  6. SBML uses CellML metadata to describe its elements. See also a message on SBML forum.
  7. BioModels database and Systems Biology Ontologies (SBO) project
  8. Open Biomedical Ontologies
  9. Bio-Ontologies
  10. Ontologies for molecular biology and bioinformatics
  11. Microarray Gene Expression Society (MGED) Ontology
  12. RDF Schemas directory
  13. CO-ODE ontology examples
