*Announce change of date for inter-ontology links?
On March 8, 2008, the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) will change the contents of our file that
contains GO annotations. This is a major change as we will add annotations that are associated with
computationally predicted methods. The SGD file currently does not include annotations that are made
using the IEA evidence code.


These annotations will include computationally predicted annotations to the Gene Ontology created by
*ID mapping resources
the Gene Ontology Annotation (GOA) project at EBI, Hinxton UK.
**see email thread on GOfriends, started [http://fafner.stanford.edu/pipermail/gofriends/2008-May/thread.html#1533 May 14 2008]


The file available from the GO Consortium is called 'gene_association.sgd' and is available from the

Items for future newsletters

  • Midori has suggested we have a whole newsletter devoted to x-products. We haven't yet decided whether this will replace or be in addition to the regular newsletter release:
Dear newsletter-ers,                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                      
I've had an idea for a future newsletter: how about a special issue                                                    
devoted entirely to cross-products? Chris has generated a lot of sets to                                               
review lately, and we'll deploy them in the live GO before too long.                                                   
Keeping our users fully informed will take more than an ordinary article                                               
in an ordinary newsletter.                                                                                             
                                                                                                                      
Some possible articles:                                                                                                
                                                                                                                      
- What are cross-products, and how do we represent them in GO files?                                                   
(Chris?)                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                      
- What do we gain by using xps? (Midori & David?)                                                                      
                                                                                                                      
- What GO terms and other ontologies will be used in xps? (Midori, David,                                              
Chris?)
