[edit] Introduction

From the Gemina project homepage:

Gemina is a web-based system designed to identify infectious pathogens and their representative genomic sequences through selection of associated epidemiology metadata. Gemina supports the development of DNA signature-based assays for the detection of pathogens or sets of pathogen through the Insignia Signature Pipeline at the University of Maryland.

[edit] Genomic Rosetta Stone

Gemina is participating in the Genomic Rosetta Stone initiative.

[edit] Identifier Policy

From Lynn Schriml:

we use NCBI's taxonomy IDs for each of our pathogens.

We don't maintain internal IDs for them, so linking to a pathogen, for linkout, the URL would be : http://gemina.igs.umaryland.edu/cgi-bin/gemina/GeneralQueryResults.cgi?pathogen=NCBITaxon:243160

[edit] Identifier Mapping Availability

Lynn is able to provide a mapping of NCBI genomeprj id and NCBI taxid (== GeminaId)
