Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in MEROPS Entry should match this regular expression:
^[SCTAGMNUI]\d{2}\.([AB]\d{2}|\d{3})$

Example Local Unique Identifiers
I31.952   Resolve
S01.001   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from MEROPS Entry should match this regular expression:
^merops\.entry:[SCTAGMNUI]\d{2}\.([AB]\d{2}|\d{3})$

Example CURIEs
merops.entry:I31.952
merops.entry:S01.001

Providers

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 I31.952 is used to demonstrate the providers available for MEROPS Entry. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.

Extra Providers

Additional providers curated in the Bioregistry are listed here. These are typically inherited from Identifiers.org or Prefix Commons, and need extra curation.
