Next Annotation Consistency Exercise - March 22, 2016

Minutes

It was agreed (and no one objected) to allow the creation of IC annotations based on one or more supporting ISS annotations.

David Hill brought up the problem of tracing statements where both the GO term and the annotation extension are used to make the IC annotation (in the first example in the doc the Lmx1b transcription factor is upregulating transcription of the Wnt1 gene). This is true for all IC annotations, not just those derived from ISS annotations. Melanie responded that they are working towards a new GPAD format that will allow the source to be traced- we need something like this or to be able to record an annotation ID (not just a GO term) for full traceability. But for the short-term curators could add an annotation note in their tool to specify the exact source fo the supporting IC evidence.
