Overview and Scope of Use

  • This relation is used in GO-CAMs but not in standard annotation extensions.
  • This relation is intended to represent a negative causal effect of on activity on another, where the mechanism is not known.
  • The 'causally upstream of, negative effect' relation is used to relate two GO Molecular Functions when:
    • the mechanism that relates the upstream molecular function to the downstream molecular function is not understood
    • the upstream molecular function occurs before the downstream molecular function
    • the upstream molecular function has a negativ3 effect on the downstream molecular function

Annotation Usage Guidelines

  • What to capture
    • Relationships between molecular functions when a negative effect has been demonstrated but the mechanism is not known.
  • What not to capture
    • Relationships where the mechanism is known. These should be represented by other relationships.

Annotation Usage Guidelines

  • What to capture
  • What not to capture

Examples

  • mRNA decapping enzymes generally act on messages that repress translation and target them to P bodies for degradation. This is part of normal mRNA turnover in the cell and is not specific to individual RNAs. This process would be causally upstream and have a negative effect on the functions of the proteins encoded by the RNAs. reference link

Ontology Usage Guidelines

This relation is not used in the ontology.
