Note that uniprot:P19367 doesn't represent "Hexokinase", but "Hexokinase in 
Homo sapiens". Here are all the hexokinases: http://tinyurl.com/2l83au.

Other than that, how is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexokinase more of a 
concept than http://beta.uniprot.org/uniprot/P19367 (could argue that both 
are just Web pages) or urn:lsid:uniprot.org:uniprot:P19367?
