The question here, was whether we needed a  term for  the APC complexed with its various inhibitors (researchers usually refer to these  complexes as APC-(inhibitor/activator superscript) ).  This gets quite complicated, because there are different activators and activators for different substrates at different cell cycle transitions, and for mitotic and meiotic cell cycles.
I believe that the consensus from the GO meeting is that we don't need these terms, and we use "x complex binding"  to represent these specific inhibitor/activator-complex interactions (the logic being that only the  functional complex is represented in GO)?
The second issue, was that we were following a precedent, and requesting these specific "APC-activator activity" terms.
https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/issues/11757
The solution here was  simple. The terms will all be merged back to the "function" term (i.e ubiquitin ligase activity, ubiquitin ligase inhibitor activity, and ubiquitin ligase activator activity). So, although these terms still exist they will be merged very soon.

Agenda

IDA or IEP for an isoform annotation

Recently Karen was annotating a paper where an isoform-agnostic antibody was used to detect the presence of a protein in a cell. Subsequent experiments showed that an RNA coding for a specific isoform had the same localization, supporting that the protein isoform was localized to that component. The question came up as to whether we should use IDA or IEP for evidence to support this. Since the experiment did not address the protein isoform itself, is it an IDA?

Also worth noting that if we decide that this is IEP, we will need to change the rules on the validation script that checks GAFs since IEP is currently only allowed for Process annotations.

Switching over automated pipelines

How difficult would it be for groups to switch over their automated pipelines to allow us to give accurate attribution to groups who make the annotations?
