Class: InformationContentEntityToNamedThingAssociation

Description: association between a named thing and a information content entity where the specific context of the relationship between that named thing and the publication is unknown. For example, model organisms databases often capture the knowledge that a gene is found in a journal article, but not specifically the context in which that gene was documented in the article. In these cases, this association with the accompanying predicate 'mentions' could be used. Conversely, for more specific associations (like 'gene to disease association', the publication should be captured as an edge property).

subject:
connects an association to the subject of the association. For example, in a gene-to-phenotype association, the gene is subject and phenotype is object.

predicate:
A high-level grouping for the relationship type. AKA minimal predicate. This is analogous to category for nodes. 		1..1

knowledge_source:
An Information Resource from which the knowledge expressed in an Association was retrieved, directly or indirectly.

In practice, implementers should use one of the more specific subtypes of this generic property. 		0..1
String		 Association
primary_knowledge_source:
The most upstream source of the knowledge expressed in an Association that an implementer can identify. Performing a rigorous analysis of upstream data providers is expected; every effort is made to catalog the most upstream source of data in this property. Only one data source should be declared primary in any association. "aggregator knowledge source" can be used to capture non-primary sources. 		0..1

category:
Name of the high level ontology class in which this entity is categorized. Corresponds to the label for the biolink entity type class. In a neo4j database this MAY correspond to the neo4j label tag. In an RDF database it should be a biolink model class URI. This field is multi-valued. It should include values for ancestors of the biolink class; for example, a protein such as Shh would have category values biolink:Protein, biolink:GeneProduct, biolink:MolecularEntity. In an RDF database, nodes will typically have an rdf:type triples. This can be to the most specific biolink class, or potentially to a class more specific than something in biolink. For example, a sequence feature f may have a rdf:type assertion to a SO class such as TF_binding_site, which is more specific than anything in biolink. Here we would have categories {biolink:GenomicEntity, biolink:MolecularEntity, biolink:NamedThing} 		0..*
