@mbrush can you investigate?

How does it compare to CLO?

[mellybelly]

It includes cross references for CLO, see http://web.expasy.org/cellosaurus/description.html It has non-human species coverage. Its more like a registry of cell lines and their providers: http://web.expasy.org/cgi-bin/cellosaurus/faq and there is more metadata and associations to publications, eg. make some comparisons for those that have links: http://web.expasy.org/cellosaurus/CVCL_J722 http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/CLO_0001334

To be fair we were trying to define something similar with pharma companies before this came out.

Here is a more extensive record: http://web.expasy.org/cellosaurus/CVCL_0547 but it may be that we just want to bring in a few more cell line resources and not get from cellosaurus

Nice write-up from Amos about getting cellosaurus into Wikidata, including several modeling issues and use cases: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kEySzc0-yDEdLNPKKeAU-Mcm-c-dMHS64Ra85AV1RvM/edit

My initial look at the data

notes:

• I do not like the biological patents.
• Alleles need a difference from reference component
  • consider per chromosome alleles.
• Anatomy/Tissue are not available yet

Their XML schema.

TODO from @cmungall check the cellosaurus obo file

[cmungall]

sounds like we should just get it from wikidata

[cmungall]

trying to prioritize this. What would this buy us?

[TomConlin]

if I recall they touch on ~600 species

[cmungall]

what's the use case for including in monarch?

If we were to bring it in, could we not just bypass the xml and load it as an ontology?
