GeneDB annotation

  • GeneDB now have two curators that do GO annotation, but neither has been trained properly
  • UniProt-GOA have offered training for them in October
  • Preliminary plan is to integrate Gene DB annotations into UniProt and allow them to use Protein2GO to add new ones, since their curation tool is not up to scratch
  • Their annotations will be subject to all the automatic updates we do on our database (e.g. obsolete GOIDs, secondary UniProt accessions etc.) but GeneDB will do any necessary manual updates
  • Species they have annotations for:

Leishmania braziliensis

Leishmania major

Leishmania mexicana

Schistosoma mansoni

Trypanosoma brucei

Trypanosoma vivax

Although it hasn't yet been decided which they will submit to us, but most likely at least L. major and T. brucei.

Questions:

Do we need to check their annotations? Which is the most appropriate group to do this?

Do they need to submit their files to the GOC (be species owner?) or is it better for them to come through the UniProt file?

GOhelpDesk move to JIRA @ TAIR

Tanya and BobM at TAIR have setup an instance of JIRA to handle GOHelp. Currently it is set up to receive emails from gohelpdesk@arabidopsis.org. We have changed gohelp email 2 times in the recent past. Some of us feel it would be nice to have a neutral address and have redirects/alias set up to go into JIRA. Bob tells me we can use gohelpdesk@geneontology.org and set up an alias to gohelpdesk@arabidopsis.org. Any thoughts/objections?

GOC meeting

  • What type of breakout sessions will we arrange, e.g. curator-relevant, ontology editor-relevant, programmer-relevant - so people can make travel plans

Discussion

  • Judy- typically we have curators work one-on-one for training. Are you going to do that?
  • Rachael- do basic training, couple of months. We have a checking period for 2-3 months during which time we check the annotations.
  • R- who can check their annotations?
  • CM - are these parasites? Does WormB look at parasitic nematodes?
  • Jane- they may have new term requests. We may want to set up a custom TermGenie template for adding terms.
  • PS- we can look at their annotations?

  • GOA will dump annotations (like they do for WB/SGD).
  • They are expected to start by end of October.

  • SL, Judy- we need to think how to make it attractive for groups to be involved with GOC.
