Agenda

Annotation Consistency Exercise

Here is a link to the paper that I've chosen for the first annotation consistency exercise/discussion:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25569233

It describes studies on C. elegans bcl-7 (http://www.wormbase.org/species/c_elegans/gene/WBGene00016192) and human BCL7B (http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9BQE9).

The main thing I'd like to focus on for the annotation exercise is what Biological Process annotations curators make, noting that, at the moment, the all-encompassing Biological Process terms might not yet exist for what is described in the paper. In particular, I'd like to discuss annotating to a process vs. regulation of a process, and the use of annotation extensions to provide more context for the BP terms.

I've included some links to entries on the anatomy terms and phenotypes described in the paper, in case they're helpful:

Note that the paper starts with gross anatomical defects and then progresses to a more detailed characterization of the phenotype. This is fairly typical.

Summary of Phenotypes Observed

Process Phenotype - C. elegans bcl-7 Phenotype - Human BCL7B
Apoptosis increased expression of anti-apoptotic factor in mutant animals; no organismal changes increased apoptosis from overexpression; increased survival with knockdown and actinomycin D treatment
Cell Cycle decreased number of mitotic germ cells increased number of cells in G0/G1 phase
Cell Differentiation increased expression of markers associated with undifferentiated state increased expression of markers associated with undifferentiated state
Gene Expression increased expression of a number of different genes - Wnt pathway, Notch pathway, apoptosis increased expression of a number of different genes - pluripotency markers, Wnt pathway, apoptosis
Nuclear Organization larger nuclei, irregularly shaped larger nuclei, irregularly shaped, multinucleate cells
Tissue/Organ Development epidermal defects, gonad defects n/a
Wnt Signaling Pathway increased expression of beta-catenins, mis-localization of WRM-1 beta-catenin, mis-localization of POP-1 TCF/LEF increased expression of beta-catenin, HMGA1

Summary of Molecular Markers Affected in bcl-7 Mutant Animals

Gene/Marker Name Molecular Identity Anatomical Expression Pattern Result
scm::gfp not known nuclei of seam cells, all larval stages reduced number except for early L1 larval stage
cdh-3::gfp cadherin cytoplasm of seam cells reduced number
col-19::gfp collagen hypodermal syncytium (hyp7) and seam cells in adult stage decreased in hyp7 (not significant), decreased in seam cells (significant)
des-2::gfp nicotinic acetylcholine receptor PVD neurons no extra neurons
dat-1::gfp dopamine transporter PDE neurons no extra neurons
egl-27::mCherry MTA1 homolog, NODE complex strong in intestine, weak in epidermis in L4 larval stage increased expression ubiquitously, but especially in seam cells and hyp7; increased expression - qRT-PCR
ceh-6 POU-homeodomain transcription factor, NODE complex not reported in this paper, but head and tail region, excretory cell, neurons, vulva - dynamic expression pattern increased expression - qRT-PCR
histone H3 (anti-phospho-histone, PH3) chromatin mitotic germ line decreased number of mitotic cells, further from source of proliferative signal (distal tip cells, DTCs)
lag-2 Notch ligand DSL (Delta, Serrate, LAG-2) 2 distal tip cells (DTCs) loss of expression in one distal tip cell
wrm-1 beta-catenin seam cells, somatic gonad precursors (SGPs, distal tip cell parents) increased expression (not significant) - qRT-PCR
bar-1 beta-catenin not discussed in this paper increased expression (significant) - qRT-PCR
sys-1 beta-catenin not discussed in this paper increased expression (significant) - qRT-PCR
WRM-1::GFP beta-catenin anterior cortex of mother seam cell at L2; higher in posterior daughter cell anterior daughter cells higher or equal to posterior daughter cell (50% of animals)
POP-1::GFP TCF/LEF transcription factor high anterior seam cell daughter confers non-seam fate, low posterior seam cell daughter confers seam fate increased in posterior seam daughter
POP-1::GFP TCF/LEF transcription factor higher in Z1.p and Z4.a (proximal, P) proximal cells equal to, or lower, than distal (D) cells
GFP::HLH-2 basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor present in both distal tip cells (DTCs) decreased expression - seen in only one or no DTCs
ced-9 anti-apoptosis factor not described in paper increased expression (significant), qRT-PCR
