Methods and strategies for annotation

Literature curation:

Literature curation of the current literature remains our primary focus as a whole. Doug spends the majority of his GO curation time on the Reference Genome Project genes. As such, much of that time is spent on curating GO from older literature. The remainder of the ZFIN curators are focused on keeping up to date with current literature.

Priorities for annotation

  1. Genes assigned by Reference Genome Project (Doug)
  2. Keep up to date with literature curation
  3. We do not currently use any other priority schemes for targeting genes for GO curation.

Computational annotation strategies:

Application of interpro2go, ec2go, spkw2go translations occurs during our monthly load of data from UniProt. The application of these translation tables is computational and requires little manual curation.
