Class: Qualifier

Description: A qualifier property + value tuple that specifies a type of qualifier and value that may be applied to a Statement. Qualfied predicates are considered qualifiers and captured here as well. Values can be specified to come from a proper range (e.g. Biolink class, data type, or enum), come from an enumerated list, use a specific id prefix, and/or conform informally to a free-text description.
