Ontology Quality Control

New procedures are in place, and others are planned, to facilitate ontology QC.

  • See XP:Progress_2008
  • Consistency checks for regulation have been completed in bulk, and are now done for new regulation terms and regulates relationships.
  • Curators are now going through the report on terms with multiple part_of parents.
  • Chris has additional reports using cross-products that can be used for QC.
  • Ontology_QC_Metrics are now recorded.

Completed work

Work in progress

The ontology development group (including "core" members and ad hoc participants) has made a great deal of progress in several areas.

MF-BP links

  • Overview of function-process (MF-BP) links
  • GO curators conducted two pilot projects aimed at manually curating MF-links, in the areas of electron transport and core metabolism (glycolysis and the [[TCA_Cycle_Process-Function_Links|TCA cycle). Slides from the October 2008 GOC meeting are available for the electron transport links.
  • The plan to add links between MF and BP to represent Regulation of molecular function has been announced on the GO Friends list, and is scheduled to be implemented on February xx, 2009.
  • Additional sources of MF-BP links include Single-step biological processes and mining pathway databases such as Reactome and MetaCyc.

Signal transduction
