Mappings
Inheritance
- is_a: Association - A typed association between two entities, supported by evidence
Children
- GeneToGeneHomologyAssociation - A homology association between two genes. May be orthology (in which case the species of subject and object should differ) or paralogy (in which case the species may be the same)
- PairwiseGeneToGeneInteraction - An interaction between two genes or two gene products. May be physical (e.g. protein binding) or genetic (between genes). May be symmetric (e.g. protein interaction) or directed (e.g. phosphorylation)
Used in
Fields
- gene to gene association.object
- Description: the object gene in the association. If the relation is symmetric, subject vs object is arbitrary. We allow a gene product to stand as proxy for the gene or vice versa
- range: GeneOrGeneProduct [required]
- Local
- gene to gene association.subject
- Description: the subject gene in the association. If the relation is symmetric, subject vs object is arbitrary. We allow a gene product to stand as proxy for the gene or vice versa
- range: GeneOrGeneProduct [required]
- Local
- association slot
- Description: any slot that relates an association to another entity
- range: string
- inherited from: Association
- association type
- Description: connects an association to the type of association (e.g. gene to phenotype)
- range: OntologyClass
- inherited from: Association
- category subsets: (translator_minimal)
- Description: Name of the high level ontology class in which this entity is categorized. Corresponds to the label for the biolink entity type class. In a neo4j database this MAY correspond to the neo4j label tag
- range: IriType*
- inherited from: NamedThing
- description subsets: (translator_minimal)
- full name
- Description: a long-form human readable name for a thing
- range: LabelType
- inherited from: NamedThing
- id subsets: (translator_minimal)
- Description: A unique identifier for a thing. Must be either a CURIE shorthand for a URI or a complete URI
- range: IdentifierType
- inherited from: NamedThing
- iri subsets: (translator_minimal)
- Description: An IRI for the node. This is determined by the id using expansion rules.

- name subsets: (translator_minimal)
- negated
- Description: if set to true, then the association is negated i.e. is not true
- range: boolean
- inherited from: Association

- qualifiers
- Description: connects an association to qualifiers that modify or qualify the meaning of that association
- range: OntologyClass*
- inherited from: Association
- related to
- Description: A grouping for any relationship type that holds between any two things

- relation
- Description: the relationship type by which a subject is connected to an object in an association
