I have a list of terms that were used to annotate a data set, how can I see if any of these terms exist in standard ontologies?


I would like to find all terms mapped from my ontology to other ontologies in BioPortal


I am the curator for a database and need to triage papers to identify which papers from PubMed are most related to my database and a good source of new information to add to my database


I have PubMed abstracts and want to link information in the abstracts to my database of interest.

  • Use the Annotator Web service. If your database of interest is included in the NCBO Resource Index you can search the database(s) for records that contain these terms. See http://www.bioontology.org/wiki/index.php/Resource_Index for more details on the Resource Index web service.


I have a web form with text fields I would like to populate with ontology terms, e.g. to select relevant Gene Ontology terms.


I would like to add the graph display of my ontology on my web site.


I would like to get all terms from an ontology and re-format the data to use in my own system.

I need to navigate through an ontology and traverse the ontology hierarchy for my software application, how can I use the Web services to do this?

  • Use the Get All terms Web service.
    • Example coming soon...

How can I limit the selection of ontologies used with the NCBO Annotator to a certain Category or Domain?

  • Use the List all ontologies and Get Groups/Domains Web service to identify the group/domain of interest.
    • Example coming soon...
