Stable identifier of a gene in Ensembl, the genome database of EMBL-EBI. It is "ENS", a three-letter species code (none for human, MUS for mouse, GAL for chicken), the feature letter G for gene and eleven digits. A version number may follow after a dot. Transcripts (T), proteins (P) and exons (E) use the same scheme with their own letter and are not covered here.
