DATABASE_MATCH via MIM curation (#213)

Ferulate grounded to trans-ferulic acid, the naturally occurring isomer. CHEBI has no ferulate anion term; CLOSE_MATCH because the label is the anion and states no isomer (#213).

MANUAL_CURATION via MIM curation (#312); chebi.db

identifier CHEBI:17620 -> CHEBI:29749; ontology CHEBI:17620 ('trans-ferulic acid') -> CHEBI:29749 ('trans-ferulate'); mapping_quality CLOSE_MATCH -> CLOSE_MATCH. The record's note 'CHEBI has no ferulate anion term' was false: CHEBI:29749 'trans-ferulate' (C10H9O4, charge -1, synonym '(E)-ferulate') is the conjugate base of CHEBI:17620 'trans-ferulic acid' (C10H10O4, charge 0), which the record was grounded to. A bare -ate label denotes the anion (Section 3, protonation state). The grade stays CLOSE_MATCH: the trans descriptor was supplied, not stated by the label, and ChEBI has no geometry-unspecified ferulate anion.
