Quality of Computationally Inferred Gene Ontology Annotations
Gene Ontology (GO) has established itself as the undisputed standard for protein function annotation. Most annotations are inferred electronically, i.e. without individual curator supervision, but they are widely considered unreliable. At the same time, we crucially depend on those automated annotations, as most newly sequenced genomes are non-model organisms. Here, we introduce a methodology t...
متن کاملVisualizing Gene Ontology annotations
Contemporary techniques in biology produce readouts for large numbers of genes simultaneously, the typical example being differential gene expression measurements. Moreover, those genes are often richly annotated using GO terms that describe gene function and that can be used to summarize the results of the genome-scale experiments. However, making sense of such GO enrichment analyses may be ch...
متن کاملGene Ontology Annotations and Resources
The Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium (GOC, http://www.geneontology.org) is a community-based bioinformatics resource that classifies gene product function through the use of structured, controlled vocabularies. Over the past year, the GOC has implemented several processes to increase the quantity, quality and specificity of GO annotations. First, the number of manual, literature-based annotations ...
متن کاملLogical Gene Ontology Annotations (GOAL): exploring gene ontology annotations with OWL
MOTIVATION Ontologies such as the Gene Ontology (GO) and their use in annotations make cross species comparisons of genes possible, along with a wide range of other analytical activities. The bio-ontologies community, in particular the Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) community, have provided many other ontologies and an increasingly large volume of annotations of gene products that can be expl...
متن کاملFlyBase: enhancing Drosophila Gene Ontology annotations
FlyBase (http://flybase.org) is a database of Drosophila genetic and genomic information. Gene Ontology (GO) terms are used to describe three attributes of wild-type gene products: their molecular function, the biological processes in which they play a role, and their subcellular location. This article describes recent changes to the FlyBase GO annotation strategy that are improving the quality...
