Introduction
Biomedical resources including gene, protein sequence databases, literature, and ontologies are abundant. These resources have terminology in common consisting of the names of proteins, genes, molecular functions, and diseases. The terminology is present in various controlled vocabularies and nomenclatures. However, only common terminology does not mean that all resources have standard vocabularies and are interoperable. One of the salient features of the Unified Medical Language System® (UMLS®), when evaluated against other terminology, is the presence of knowledge sources (Bodenreider, 2004).
This study discusses the approach of Unified Medical Language System® (UMLS®) that covers the most of the biomedical domain.
