Annotation Consistency Exercise for August 2016

• August 23 - SGD

Membrane Cellular Component Annotations and More Generally, Chain of Evidence Annotations

• This annotation issue was raised by Rebecca and concerns annotation to membrane child terms, e.g. integral to synaptic vesicle membrane, given different types of experimental results.
• More generally, though, the annotation issue here concerns what we have often referred to as chain-of-evidence annotations, which means annotations that result from curators considering the experimental result as well as additional information such as sequence motifs or domains.
• There is a nice summary from Rebecca on the 2016-07-11 minutes.
• For today's call, we would like to have a discussion on this issue and proposal.
