Biological Sequence Location

- Category: class
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/places - Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)
A sequence-level container locus — a chromosome, contig, scaffold, or the sequence itself — that hosts SequenceFeature annotations via gmeow:hasSequenceFeature. The features themselves (genes, exons, SNPs, etc.) are SequenceFeature instances with their own coordinates and types; they are not BiologicalSequenceLocation instances.
Structure
Subclass of: gmeow:Location
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:BiologicalSequenceLocation as a specialized kind of gmeow:Location. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use for a sequence-level container locus — a chromosome, contig, scaffold, or the sequence itself — that hosts feature annotations.
Avoid when
- Avoid using it for the features themselves (genes, exons, SNPs are
gmeow:SequenceFeatureinstances) and for a terrestrial place.
How to use
- Type as
BiologicalSequenceLocationand attach features viagmeow:hasSequenceFeature; the features carry their own coordinates and types.
