Overview of Function-Process regulates links

Frequently Asked Questions:

Which files will be affected?

The new relationships will only be present in the file:

go/ontology/obo_format_1_2/gene_ontology_ext.obo

The other OBO format ontology files (gene_ontology_edit.obo, gene_ontology.1_2.obo, gene_ontology.1_0.obo and gene_ontology.obo) will remain unaffected by this change, as will the database.

Will my parser break if I use the file with the new links?

Your parser or tool should NOT break unless it has been written such that it makes the assumption there are no inter-ontology links.

Even if the parser does not break, tools and databases may behave differently in that they may automatically classify gene products under an MF node where they previously did not.

How do I calculate transitive closure?
