Annotation Extension Relations
'activated by' and 'inhibited by'
- If the chemical or molecular entity performing the activation or inhibition acts directly on the gene product by binding to it and is believed to be an endogenous regulator:
- remove the 'activated by' or 'inhibited by' annotation extension
- create a new 'binding' annotation with an annotation extension of: 'directly positively regulates' or 'directly negatively regulates' the regulated activity of the gene product
- If the annotation is to a binding term, and the extension is 'activated by' the chemical or molecular entity bound:
- remove the 'activated by' annotation extension and replace with 'has input'
- the annotations will be used in the future to create or check the logical definitions in the ontology
- If the inhibitor acts by competitively binding to an entity required for the activity of another gene product:
- proposal: the activity of the inhibitor (upstream) 'directly negatively regulates' the activity of the downstream gene product
- Examples:
- Two DNA-binding transcription factors that compete for overlapping regulatory sequences
- A gene product that binds and sequesters an enzyme substrate
- A decoy receptor that binds and sequesters a ligand
- secreted frizzled-related proteins
