How this entity was disambiguated

This entity first appeared as the object of triple T8482731 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07

Target entity: UniProt Knowledgebase
Context triple: [UniProt protein sequences, partOf, UniProt Knowledgebase]

A. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot is the manually curated, high-quality section of the UniProt Knowledgebase that provides reviewed protein sequence and functional annotation data.
B. UniProtKB/TrEMBL
UniProtKB/TrEMBL is a computationally annotated section of the UniProt Knowledgebase that contains large-scale, unreviewed protein sequence records awaiting expert curation.
C. Protein Information Resource
Protein Information Resource is a bioinformatics resource center that curates, annotates, and provides access to comprehensive protein sequence and functional information for the scientific community.
D. UniProt protein sequences
UniProt protein sequences are a comprehensive, curated collection of protein sequence data that serves as a primary reference resource for protein information in biological and biomedical research.
E. UniProt Consortium
The UniProt Consortium is an international collaboration of bioinformatics organizations responsible for maintaining and curating the UniProt protein sequence and functional annotation database.
F. None of above. chosen
G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
