*Proposal: p is causally upstream of, positive effect on q if and only if p precedes q and p and q are linked in a causal chain whereby completion/execution/progression of p increases the frequency, rate or extent of q but not via a direct physical interacction between entities.
 
*RO comment: holds between x and y if and only if x is causally upstream of y and the progression of x increases the frequency, rate or extent of y

Overview

  • The 'causally upstream of, positive effect' relation is used to relate GO Biological Processes (BP) or GO Molecular Functions (MF) when:
    • the mechanism that relates the upstream process (BP or MF) to the downstream process (BP or MF) is understood
    • the activities of the gene products in the upstream process occur before events in the downstream process
    • in order for the downstream process to occur normally, the upstream process needs to occur
