Action Items

• Suzi, Judy: find next curation targets (2 families in the wnt pathway)
• SGD, Judy: look into what we need to do basal transcription and ceramide synthesis

Suggestion for next targets

• Hearing: Susan Tweedie, Doug Howe, MGI
  • A group has support for annotation/analysis of genes implicated in hearing. A suggestion would be to annotate those genes only for hearing? or we can see how many genes there are and edit all.
• Basal Transcription: Given that the ontology has just been fixed, and many genes need to be re-annotated, we could make this a ref genome project
• Ubiquitin ligases: Swiss-Prot has annotated ubiquitin ligases over the summer. We could try skipping the MOD curation since Swiss-Prot has done some GO annotations. That would be a great opportunity to compare annotation processes of Swiss-Prot.
• continue wnt pathway

wnt project update

• Comments, questions, problems?

Status on uploading GAF files

• Groups uploading files: UniProt, MGI, SGD, PomBase

Outstanding action items

• Action: Figure out a mechanism by which taxonomic restrictions derived from PAINT could be fed back into the ontology taxon restrictions file [Paul and Jane]. Manager: Jane.
  • Pascale emailed Jane and Paul to check the status of that one.
