#ACTION ITEM: [Pascale, ref genome] Community interaction and outreach: Val presented the form where users annotated their papers : http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Projects/S_pombe/community_curation.shtml . Should we try extending the experiment to other groups? We can try using it when we work with experts on 'annotation projects' such as lung development.

Participants: Judy, Suzi, Jane, Pascale, Jen, Midori, Chris, David

Agenda: Jane

Minutes: Pascale

Action items from previous calls

  • David, Chris: organize the xp webex. (There has been a great tutorial by David OS at the Buffalo Ontology meeting)
  • Jane: email Amelia to put xp documentation (for GO users): DONE see GO Structure and XPs
  • Midori awaiting webex on XPs before sending announcement mail.

Assign people to the Action items from 09-09 Cambridge GO meeting

  1. ACTION: [Judy, Chris, Darren, Suzi] Primary stake holders in GO and PRO need to agree on how GO components and PRO will relate to each other. Next PRO meeting end of April
  2. ACTION: [Pascale, Kara, Paul] Ref genome annotation groups need to get ISS annotations from PAINT into their databases this year. This includes having a repository to put the annotations.

XP term request template

  1. ACTION: [Chris] implement a version like shown for curators to try before next GO meeting
  2. Annotation Relationships [Chris/Jane]: There is an implicit relation between an annotation and the gene to which it applies; an explicit relation between annotation and gene would be better. The relations may be like ‘extrinsic to’ or ‘acted on during’ to relate annotation to gene
  3. UniPath:
    1. ACTION: [Pascale, Anne, Harold, Chris, Peter D’Eustachio, and Mary Dolan] will work together to provide cross products b/t MFunction and Chebi to provide and report back to the group in the Spring meeting

Binding terms:

    • Paul NEEDS us to be able to do this for PAINT tree annotation
  2. ACTION: Current working group will edit the binding term annotation guidelines in line with the comments from discussion and distribute to PI’s for approval and then include in guidelines.


Other topics:

  1. ACTION: [Emily] Paul and Emily interested in joining new working group discussion on ISS/IC topic
  2. ChEBI(Marcus Ennis): Increase effort to get GO and ChEBI aligned
  3. ACTION: [Judy, GO-tops] Have another annotation camp, perhaps just for current GO curators [Geneva?]

Discussion items

  • Function-process proposal [David, Tanya, Chris and Jane] - in progress.
  • GOC meeting - dates fixed? will be last week of March at Stanford, SAB on April 2. To be discussed : would the GOC meeting be Tues- Wed or Fri, Sat.
  • After going to the Cardiovascular meeting, Yasmin and David Hill were very interested in carrying out a similar meeting for renal development. However the Kidney research charity's grant could not support travel costs etc. associated with such a meeting.
