IMGT-ONTOLOGY

Allows scientists and clinicians to use, for the first time, identical terms with the same meaning in immunogenetics. IMGT-ONTOLOGY provides a semantic repository that will improve interoperability between specialist and generalist databases. It provides a semantic classification and standardization of the knowledge in the immunogenetics field used to identify the sequences, to describe their detailed composition, to classify Ig and TcR genes, and to define in which experimental, biological or medical context the sequences have been obtained.
