We recently discovered that several bad annotations have crept into the GOA-Uniprot set for E. coli due to a coding error I made in creating our gp2protein file. In some cases there were two UniProt accessions assigned to the same EcoCyc accession, leading to annotations that are correct in our gene_association.ecocyc file to be mapped onto the wrong protein in GOA-UniProt.
We are rebuilding the gp2protein file, which we hope will fix some of the problem. However, it looks like there are also some annotations attributed to GOC that look like they are function-process projections based on our bad annotations. Will fixing the gp2protein cause these to be remade?
See: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/QuickGO/GProtein?ac=P16683
The annotation to DNA binding gives an IDA evidence code and refers to PMID:12460564. However, that paper is not about the phnE, the protein annotated at the link. It also suggests that the IDA annotation should be marked in some other way to indicate that it was not done by manual curation of the reference.
We apologize for the problems created by our error.
Hi Jim,
This annotation is not visible anymore, so your fix has worked.
Rachael.
(P.S. Sorry for the delay!)
