<ext-link>
External Link
Link to an external file or resource.
Remarks
Linking Best Practice: Use the standard XLink attributes to provide a live link to the external
source. The attribute @xlink:href is not required, but should
be used to provide the link.
Resource Type: The @ext-link-type attribute can be used to give an indication of the type of resource to which the external link points. While this Tag Set does not constrain the values of this attribute, and ordinary text is acceptable, the values include the following and similar:
doi | Digital Object Identifier |
|---|---|
ftp | File transfer protocol |
uri | Website or web service |
ec | Enzyme nomenclature. (See: http://www.chem.qmw.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/) |
gen | GenBank identifier |
pdb | Protein data bank. (See: http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/) |
pirdb | Protein Information Resource. (See: http://pir.georgetown.edu) |
