I visited Steve Oliver at the Biochemistry Department (new building) on Tennis Court Road. I gave him a tour of the new high level terms and he was impressed with what we have done so far. We talked about how annotation should work where drugs are being transported by transporters that normally transport non-drug solutes and I explained about our plan to structure the graph along chemical structure lines, rather than have people annotate to 'xenobiotic transporter activity' or 'drug transporter activity'. He said that would work best for them too. He has a colleague called Paul Dobson who has recently completed a review of the transporters and Steve is wondering if Paul would be prepared to work with us to update the terms, as his knowledge is now completely up to date.

Steve Oliver, who I met at the EuroFung Aspergillus annotation meeting, is interested to initiate a GO transport meeting to look at some aspects of function and process. He is now based in Cambridge and we have agreed that now is a good time for us to look at doing the work. I am in contact to try to figure out a good time to visit.
