where {PDBID} should be something like "1a00" (in lowercase).

Converting PDBML to RDF

tore.eriksson has made a tentative XSL stylesheet to convert PDBMLplus (some selected elements) into RDF. (but when I checked the output RDF with raptor converter (rapper), it had some errors...)

While I (akinjo) was in Shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka, I wrote an XSL stylesheet that convert the whole PDBML file into RDF (files attached). I noticed one good thing about PDBML.

Some examples of the triples are:

<http://service.pdbj.org/mine/xpath/1A00> <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label> "1A00" .
<http://service.pdbj.org/mine/xpath/1A00/PDBx:datablock/PDBx:entityCategory/PDBx:entity[1]> <http://mmcif.pdbj.org/XML/pdbmlplus/pdbMLplus_v32.xsd/_entity.pdbx_description> "HEMOGLOBIN (ALPHA CHAIN)" .
<http://service.pdbj.org/mine/xpath/1A00/PDBx:datablock/PDBx:entityCategory> <http://mmcif.pdbj.org/XML/pdbmlplus/pdbMLplus_v32.xsd/entity> <http://service.pdbj.org/mine/xpath/1A00/PDBx:datablock/PDBx:entityCategory/PDBx:entity[4]> .

(Predicate URI's are not valid at present.)

To do

  • Currently, PDBML files converted by using PDBMLplus2rdf.xsl and PDBML2rdf.xsl do not contain any links to other databases. For that we need to write other XSL stylesheets.
  • There are also cross references within PDB, but these are not handled yet. To do so requires some analysis of the PDBML schema.

2010-02-15: PDBML schema to OWL

I succeeded converting PDBML schema into OWL/RDF using XSLT. The resulting OWL file was validated as OWL/Full-compatible by WonderWeb OWL Ontology validator (  http://www.mygrid.org.uk/OWL/Validator )!

To do

  • Writing a XSL stylesheet that write another XSL stylesheet for converting PDBML files into RDF.

That is,

PDBML Schema (pdbx-v32.xsd) --(pdbx2pdbml2rdf.xsl)--> XSL Stylesheet (pdbml2rdf.xsl)
PDBML file --(pdbml2rdf.xsl)--> PDBML/RDF

One big advantage of translating PDBML schema is that it contains cross-references to many items within a PDBML file.

How to load data to virtuoso

First, in the virtuoso.ini file, set the following parameter

DirsAllowed                     = ., /usr/local/virtuoso-opensource/share/virtuoso/vad, /tmp

So the directory /tmp is allowed to have data to be loaded.

Then put the data file in /tmp (e.g., all.ttl, ddbj.rdf).

% cat load.isql
DB.DBA.TTLP_MT(file_to_string_output('/tmp/all.ttl'), '' ,'http://www.pdbj.org');
checkpoint;

DB.DBA.RDF_LOAD_RDFXML(file_to_string_output('/tmp/lala.rdf'), '' ,'http://www.pdbj.org');
checkpoint;

% isql 1111 dba dba < load.isql

Here the third argument for the functions TTLP_MT and RDF_LOAD_RDFXML is the name of the graph (in this case, it's  http://www.pdbj.org).

PDBML2RDF

  • The XSL stylesheet for converting PDBML Schema (pdbx-v32.xsd) to an OWL ontology is completed (pdbx2owl.xsl).
  • The XSL stylesheet for converting PDBML Schema (pdbx-v32.xsd) to the XSL stylesheet that converts PDBML files to RDF files is completed (pdbx2pdbml2rdf.xsl).
    • This converter generator also make internal cross-references within each PDB entry. However, there are a number of errors in the definition of cross-references in the PDBML Schema (using xsd:key and xsd:keyref), thus, the resulting cross-references are significantly flawed.

Example of using the stylesheets

# creating OWL ontology
% xsltproc pdbx2owl.xsl pdbx-v32.xsd > pdbx-v32.owl

# creating PDBML-> RDF converter
% xsltproc pdbx2pdbml2rdf.xsl pdbx-v32.xsd > PDBML2rdf.xsl

# converting a PDBML file to RDF.
% xsltproc PDBML2rdf.xsl 1a00-noatom.xml > 1a00-noatom.rdf
