Data types captured Anatomical Structures Organisms Metazoa Contact Primary citation Mungall & al. (2012)[1] Release date 2012 Access Data format OWL and OBO Website http://obophenotype.github.io/uberon/ Download URL http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/uberon/merged.owl Sparql endpoint http://sparql.hegroup.org/sparql Miscellaneous License open The **Uber-anatomy ontology (Uberon)** is a [comparative anatomy](/source/Comparative_anatomy) [ontology](/source/Ontology_(information_science)) representing a variety of structures found in [animals](/source/Metazoa), such as [lungs](/source/Lungs), [muscles](/source/Muscles), [bones](/source/Bone), [feathers](/source/Feathers) and [fins](/source/Fish_anatomy#Fins). These structures are connected to other structures via relationships such as [part-of](/source/Part-of) and develops-from.[1] One of the uses of this ontology is to integrate data from different [biological databases](/source/Biological_databases), and other species-specific ontologies such as the [Foundational Model of Anatomy](/source/Foundational_Model_of_Anatomy).[2][3][4] ## References 1. ^ [***a***](#cite_ref-pmid22293552_1-0) [***b***](#cite_ref-pmid22293552_1-1) Mungall, Christopher J; Torniai Carlo; Gkoutos Georgios V; Lewis Suzanna E; Haendel Melissa A (2012).
