Dear colleagues,
Please forward this request for public review into interested communities!
The HUPO Proteomics Standards Initiative (PSI) develops standards for
documentation and storage of Proteomics data (see http://www.psidev.info
for an overview of activities).
An updated specification document of PSI-MI TAB (version 2.8) has been
submitted to the PSI document process.
Aims of format and update: The ability to display molecular interactions in
a single, unified PSI-MI XML format represented a milestone in the field
of molecular interactions. A tab-delimited format, MITAB, has proven more
suitable for users requiring a simple, human-readable configuration.
Implementation of these standards by all leading molecular interaction
databases has considerably contributed to data exchange, representation
and comparison. PSI-MI TAB format and PSI-MI controlled vocabulary have been
extended to include additional terms representing aspects of causal
interactions
for the representation and dissemination of signalling information. PSI-MITAB
2.7
has been extended by adding four more columns allowing the description of
signalling data and, therefore, updated to the new PSI-MITAB 2.8 version
Specification document, CV terms and use case example:

The proposed document version 2.8.0 DRAFT now goes
through a 30-day public comments and external review phase until May 30th,
2021.
This message is to encourage you to contribute to the standards development
activity by commenting
on the document. We invite both positive and negative comments on the
relevance, correctness,
clarity and appropriateness of the specification (e.g. is it presented in
accordance with the
templates and clearly written, is it sufficiently detailed and comprehensively
described and
are the examples in agreement with the specification?).
Comments can be made on the specification as a whole or on specific parts.
If you do not feel experienced enough to comment on this document, but know
colleagues
who are, please feel free to forward this message to them. There is no
requirement that
people commenting should have had any prior contact with the PSI.
Please send comments by e-mail directly to me until May 30th, 2021.
Thank you very much in advance for your valuable help!
Best regards
Martin Eisenacher (PSI Editor)
