Dear GMODders, Following on from a recent discussion on gmod-schema involving Eric and Siddhartha, I thought this would be a good opportunity to clarify some differences between some existing GO association formats, and to give you a heads-up about a new more expressive way of doing GO annotation you'll be seeing soon. I posted some details here: http://geneontology.org/article/gaf-gpad-and-lego In particular, I wanted to draw your attention to the more expressive form of LEGO annotations. The best way to grok this is by having a look at some existing annotations and documentation here: http://noctua.berkeleybop.org/ Although I think it's too early to start thinking about integrating this into the GMOD stack, we can still have a conversation about how this might work. For example, WormBase are exploring the addition of a Noctua widget into their pages. What we learn from this could feed into generic GMOD tools like Tripal - it would be great to see LEGO diagrams in there. I'd be happy to answer any questions over on the GMOD lists. Also, if any of you are at ISB/Biocuration then there will be many GO experts there, as well as the Noctua developer, Seth. Paul Thomas will be giving a talk about the modeling paradigm. Feel free to ask us questions! Cheers, Chris |
