Anatomical Entity Annotations from UBERON
anatomy_annotation.Rd
A curated annotation table of anatomical entities sourced from the UBERON ontology. This dataset provides standard identifiers, human-readable names, and textual definitions for anatomical structures. It is used within the tKOI analysis pipeline to enrich network nodes of type "Anatomy" with biological context and ontology-based metadata.
Format
A data frame with 15,668 rows and 3 columns:
- identifier
A character string representing the UBERON ontology identifier (e.g., "UBERON:0000002").
- name
The human-readable name of the anatomical structure (e.g., "uterine cervix").
- definition
A character string describing the biological definition or functional role of the anatomical entity.

Details
The dataset supports the annotation and interpretation of graph nodes labeled as anatomical concepts in biological networks.
It can be joined to results using the identifier
column to enhance interpretability of enriched or prioritized nodes.
