Agenda
Annotation QC
- Manual annotation to uninformative high-level terms is strongly discouraged
- See: improving specificity by banning high level terms #1648
- For example: direct annotation to 'transport' (GO:0006810) is one case where a more specific annotation can likely be made
- In AmiGO, there are 53 experimentally supported annotations to 'transport'.
- Can groups check these annotations to see if a more granular term is appropriate?
- Annotations according to group:
(8) EcoCyc
(7) EcoliWiki
(7) MGI
(7) PseudoCAP
(6) SGD
(5) UniProt
(4) BHF-UCL
(3) RGD
(3) TAIR
(2) GR
(1) SynGO
- PomBase has a list of >1300 high-level terms that have a 'do not manually annotate' flag
- The proposal is to work through this list so annotations are consistent amongst all GOC members
Ontology Updates

Minutes
- On call: David H., Dmitry, Edith, Eric, George, Giulia, Harold, Jim, Karen, Kimberly, Li, Liz, Midori, Pascale, Paul T., Penelope, Petra, Robert, Rob N., Sabrina, Sage, Shur-Jen, Stacia, Stan, Suzi, Tanya, Terry, Val
Annotation QC
- Action Item: Need curators to review experimental annotations to 'transport'
- Report back on any annotations that can't reasonably be transferred to a more granular term
- We will continue to look at the PomBase list and prioritize additional flags and error checks
Ontology Updates
- Will merge DNA binding transcription factor activity into nucleic acid binding transcription factor activity
- Trying to distinguish 'general' transcription factors (generally only used for pol II TFs) from specific, regulatory TFs
- Pascale will tag groups/people if annotations need review
- Pascale and Karen will discuss further
GOC Cambridge Meetings
Signaling Pathways
- Will follow-up on signaling workshop with items using the go-annotation tracker
HTP Evidence Codes
- Helen will finish updating guidelines
- How doe the HTP evidence codes map up to existing GO evidence codes?
- They are in a separate branch, although still experimental.
