A dataset containing different types of gene and genome features along with their Sequence Ontology (SO) identifiers and definitions.

Usage

feature_type_definitions

Format

A tibble with 71 rows and 3 variables:

feature_type

Character. The type of gene or genome feature.

so_id

Character. The Sequence Ontology identifier associated with the feature type.

definition

Character. The definition of the feature type.

Source

The table in https://www.informatics.jax.org/userhelp/GENE_feature_types_help.shtml and a few other terms found in MGI reports.
