NIF Standard Ontologies NIFSTD 1.7 Released
We are pleased to announce the new release of NIFSTD 1.7. Please visit http://purl.org/nif/ontology/nif.owl to access the owl file.Major changes of this release include:
- Retirement of OBO-UBO layer: Eliminated the need of BIRNLex-OBO-UBO module (a common bridge between all NIF modules and BFO) to be imported
\t
- Content Enhancement and Improvements:
- Inclusion of Protein Ontology (PRO) under NIF-Molecule module.
- A bridge file has been generated to assign equivalencies between NIF-Molecule and PRO mapping terms (based on exact or synonymous lexical matches). It also places the PRO terms under NIF’s macromolecule. Bridge file location: http://ontology.neuinfo.org/NIF/BiomaterialEntities/NIF-Molecule-PRO-Bridge.owl
\t - Molecules hierarchy has been modified to reflect close alignment between NIF’s Chemical and CHEBI’s upper level hierarchies
- More neuron labels are altered in NIF-Cell module to conform with standardized naming convention by NIF cell working group
- Additional partonomy relations for NIF-Anatomy
- New classes and annotations from NeuroLex wiki contributions in different modules
