Signaling to do list
Project from Chris:
>> (4) 'signal transmission' is defined as: >> "The process whereby a signal is released and/or conveyed from one location to another. The process terminates at the end of the sub-process of signal transduction, when the function of the cell has been altered as a consequence of receipt of the signal." >> So, the definition says that signal transduction is a sub-process of signal transmission. This implies that signal transduction is part_of signal transmission. Yet 'signal transduction' is an is_a child of signal transmission. Which is correct? > > I think they are both correct. I am going to leave the relationship as is_a. We could follow this up in a separate thread if you'd like to discuss it. This is a bit worrying. What I would really appreciate is a simple diagram showing the flow of time on the x axis, with the processes arranged according to the allen interval relations (http://www.ics.uci.edu/~alspaugh/cls/shr/allen.html ). Looking at signaling3.obo doesn't really tell me the changes. for example, is a receptor binding pathway always immediately preceded by receptor binding? (Reactome doesn't appear to be consistent here) I think we should get the logical definition template correct first. I have set up a file biological_process_xp_signaling.obo I used starts_with, which implies part_of, but I think this should really be initiated_by
