Biological process terms can be further specified by subcellular location. For example: ''plastid translational elongation''
'''Sequestering of calcium ion at sarcoplasmic reticulum:'''


At the time of writing this term is not declared in GO. We should use the occurs_in relation:

''To characterize the effects of the new CASQ2 mutations on SR Ca2+ handling in vivo, we performed experiments in adult rat ventricular myocytes infected with adenoviral constructs. Caffeine (10 mmol/L) was applied to myocytes expressing either WT or mutant CASQ2 to evaluate the SR Ca2+-storing capacity by measurement of fluo-3 fluorescence and of Na+/Ca2+ exchange current (INCX; Figure 4A; Table 1).21 Expression of WT increased the SR Ca2+ content by 50%, whereas CASQ2 G112+5X reduced the SR content, not only as compared with WT expression but also as compared with native cells (Ad-control).''

Why, you might ask, can we not instead make two annotations to:


* GO:0032544 ! plastid translation
{| class="wikitable" border="1"
* GO:0006414 ! translational elongation

The answer is that co-annotation carries less information. Computationally we have no way of knowing these two processes are linked.

Note that the majority of the time, BP x CC cross-products should be pre-composed in the ontology. If the above scenario comes up, consider requesting a new term ''plastid translational elongation'' rather than using col 16.
 
Also note that when using a GO ID in col 16, a redundant annotation should sometimes be added. See [[Annotation_Cross_Products#Guidelines]]

Sequestering of calcium ion at sarcoplasmic reticulum:

Statement from paper:

To characterize the effects of the new CASQ2 mutations on SR Ca2+ handling in vivo, we performed experiments in adult rat ventricular myocytes infected with adenoviral constructs. Caffeine (10 mmol/L) was applied to myocytes expressing either WT or mutant CASQ2 to evaluate the SR Ca2+-storing capacity by measurement of fluo-3 fluorescence and of Na+/Ca2+ exchange current (INCX; Figure 4A; Table 1).21 Expression of WT increased the SR Ca2+ content by 50%, whereas CASQ2 G112+5X reduced the SR content, not only as compared with WT expression but also as compared with native cells (Ad-control).
