Description: Cell Ontology (CL) is an open OBO Foundry ontology designed to classify and describe cell types across different organisms. It serves as a resource for model organism and bioinformatics databases. CL covers a broad range of cell types in animal cells, with over 2700 cell type classes, and provides high-level cell type classes as mapping points for cell type classes in ontologies representing other species, such as the Plant Ontology or Drosophila Anatomy Ontology. As an OBO Foundry ontology, CL can be integrated with other ontologies such as Uberon, GO, CHEBI, PR, and PATO, thus enabling linking cell types to anatomical structures, biological processes, and other relevant concepts.
