    Dear Sebastian,
    I was assigned to review your term request. I need further clarification from you. Gonadotropins are really complexes (heterodimers of an alpha and a beta subunits). Are you interested in the generic complexes or individual chains?
    Thanks for the clarification
    Regards,
    Cecilia

    Thank you very much for your prompt reply.
    We would need this class for logical definitions in HPO. The HPO classes we would like to logically define are 'Gonadotropin excess' and 'Gonadotropin deficiency'. These are textually defined as:
    "Overproduction of gonadotropins (FSH, LH) by the anterior pituitary gland."
    and
    "A reduced ability to secrete gonadotropins, which are protein hormones secreted by gonadotrope cells of the anterior pituitary gland, including the hormones follitropin (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH)."
    , respectively.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more information.

    Best,
    Sebastian

      Dear Sebastian,

      I have an additional question for you. But first want to give you some clarification. Since gonadotropin would be considered a complex, both GO and PRO are the ontologies to host it. GO deals with complexes that are conserved in many species and terms are made generic (non-species specific). Currently GO does not have Gonadotropin, but it does have the term GO:0016914 follicle-stimulating hormone complex, which should be a child of gonadotropin. PRO, on the other hand, would make the corresponding species-specific complexes. For example, if you are interested in human gonadotropin term then PRO would be the ontology to host it.

      So the question is: Would the term gonadotropin (human) be OK for your purpose, or do you need the species agnostic term (which should be requested to GO)?

      Thanks in advance,

      Regards,

      cecilia

    Sorry for the delay. The GO people will create relatively species-agnostic class which will do the job for the mouse/human/etc people.

    Thank you very much!
