Term name - isotopologue Structured comment name - isotopologue Definition - Isotopologue (isotope source/substrate/molecule) added to the biological sample. List the PubChem Compound Identification (CID) number, or, if an undefined mixture, a short description. If more than one isotopologue was used in this sample, use a pipe to delimit each isotopologue, and ensure all isotopologue-describing fields describe all isotopologues in this order. Expected value - text or CID Value syntax - {termLabel} {[termID]}|{text} Example - 1140 or cellulose or 1140 | cellulose Preferred unit - NA
@simpso91 is 1140 a different compound? Or is it the CID for cellulose?
Yes, 1140 is a different compound (toluene)
We could use 962 (water) instead of cellulose so it would look like: (three different examples) 1140 or 1140 | 962 or root exudates
@only1chunts , @ramonawalls and I are working hard to get the various components of a term definition to be fully compatible with one another. Can we work through that for this term, and possibly other terms in your new package?
The Value syntax
is '{termLabel} {[termID]}|{text}' but the examples are
All of those are valid as text, but free text is obviously the worst choice if you want the data you and others submit to be FAIR
Pubchem CIDs are also mentioned, presumably as a more controlled namespace. That's great! Is that what '1140 | cellulose' is supposed to be an example of? A {termLabel} {[termID]}
example could be 'cellulose [pubchem.compound:1140]' (as redirected by identifiers.org and bioregistry)
I really think we should update the issue tempalte for new term requests to clarify the interrelatedness of the various term attributes.
Thank you @turbomam ! In that case, the examples should be:
Also, @mslarae13 in the manuscript (because I had to shorten all the structured comment names anyway), we are moving towards using the American spelling "isotopolog" instead of "isotopologue". Could this entry be changed to reflect this?
@turbomam - I have added a line to the issue tickets templates requesting addition of relationship to other terms. I had hoped that sort of detail would be included under the "additional context" section, but I guess its better to be explicit.
In the interest of simplifying this field, Roli proposed having this field accept only numerical values:
@simpso91 what is the additional column? We can't add columns depending on another column. The same reason we can't has isotopolog_1, isotopolog_2 ... etc depending on how many there are. You have to pipe them.
So we would have to make this column the numerical value... and have another column for the name. Making the name column optional.
The misspelling when a pubchem ID doesn't exist is a very valid concern.
Discussed If not in pubchecm it's hard to bioinformatically worked with. Add a link for how to go to pubmed and fill out your ID
