core.miriam¶

MIRIAM qualifiers.

A MIRIAM annotation combines a qualifier, saying how an element relates to something else, with a resource pointing at a database entry. Biological qualifiers (BQB) relate an element to a biological entity, model qualifiers (BQM) describe the model itself.

from pymetadata.core.annotation import RDFAnnotation
from pymetadata.core.miriam import BQB

RDFAnnotation(qualifier=BQB.IS, resource="CHEBI:17234")

Choosing the qualifier matters: BQB.IS states that the element is the annotated entity, whereas BQB.IS_VERSION_OF is the weaker claim that it is one form of it.

BQM ¶

Bases: Enum

MIRIAM model qualifier, relating a model to a resource.

Use BQM.IS_DESCRIBED_BY to link a model to the publication describing it, and BQM.IS_DERIVED_FROM to link it to the model it was built from.

BQB ¶

Bases: Enum

MIRIAM biological qualifier, relating an element to a biological entity.

The most common are BQB.IS (the element is the entity), BQB.IS_VERSION_OF (the element is one form of the entity), BQB.IS_PART_OF (the element is part of the entity) and BQB.HAS_TAXON (the entity occurs in the given taxon).
