Hello,

I wondered if spermine should be is_a polyamine? It isn't at present, but it is in GO.

Thanks

Val

    ChEBI classifies spermine as a tetraamine, but tetraamine (CHEBI:39166) is a organic amino compound (CHEBI:50047) rather than a polyamine. Should that missing link be added?

    Thanks,
    Paola

    We do have the term 'polyazaalkane' (CHEBI:39474). I think our entry for polyamine corresponds to a polymeric macromolecule. Maybe map to 39474 instead?
