• Defined by: gmeow:slices/places
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

The kind of a sequence feature (gene, exon, intron, CDS, SNP, chromosome, etc.). A value, not a subclass: the set is open-ended (Sequence Ontology lists ~2000 types) and they share all of SequenceFeature's structure, so a new kind is a new individual, not a new class (Principle 9).

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:SequenceFeatureType as a specialized kind of gufo:QualityValue. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to mint or reference a kind of sequence feature (the Sequence Ontology superset) as a value individual.

Avoid when

• Avoid subclassing SequenceFeature per type (Principle 9).

How to use

• Mint the kind as a gmeow:SequenceFeatureType individual and reference it via gmeow:sequenceFeatureType.
