Title: Taxon and GO

Taxon and GO

Removal of sensu
  • Old system
  • larval development (sensu Insecta)
  • def The process whose specific outcome is the
    progression of the larva over time, from its
    formation to the mature structure. As in, but not
    restricted to Insecta.

3
  • New system
  • instar larval development
  • def The process whose specific outcome is the
    progression of the larva over time, from its
    formation to the mature structure. This begins
    with the newly hatched first-instar larva,
    through its maturation to the end of the last
    larval stage

4
GO is species-neutral
  • The GO can support annotation across all species.
  • This is good!
  • Total exclusion of taxon information can
  • create problems.

5
  • We have 23802 terms.
  • Time-sink for users.
  • Worst for
  • peripheral
  • species groups.

Typical User Query Hello, I'd like to load
into our database only GO terms that are
relevant for plants. Is there such GO-slim ? If
not, is there a way to filter out GO terms that
are not applicable for plants? Thanks, -Naama
Menda
Plant and Animal Genome Meeting 2005 Speaker
Some people think the size of GO
makes it hard to handle. Audience Raucous
laughter and shouts of no really?
Sanger microbial annotation We need a
prokaryote slim or we will not be able to
annotate fast enough to meet our targets.
(paraphrased)

GO language can be quite subtle.
  • membrane of vacuole
  • with cell cycle-independent morphology
  • def The lipid bilayer surrounding a vacuole that
    retains the same shape regardless of cell cycle
    phase. The membrane separates its contents from
    the cytoplasm of the cell.

To an outsider this is like
  • (8) If the Secretary of State considers it
    necessary or desirable to do so, he may by
    regulations prescribe a scale or scales of fees
    to have effect, for such period as is specified
    in the regulations, in place of any scale or
    scales prescribed by the Commission and, if he
    does so, references in subsections (3) and (4) to
    the appropriate scale are to be read as respects
    that period as references to the appropriate
    scale prescribed by the Secretary of State.

Seen in context..
  • membrane of vacuole
  • with cell cycle-independent morphology
  • def The lipid bilayer surrounding a vacuole that
    retains the same shape regardless of cell cycle
    phase. The membrane separates its contents from
    the cytoplasm of the cell.

membrane of vacuole with cell cycle-correlated
morphology def The lipid bilayer surrounding a
vacuole, the shape of which correlates with cell
cycle phase. The membrane separates its contents
from the cytoplasm of the cell.

With some inside information
Plant vacuole membrane
  • membrane of vacuole
  • with cell cycle-independent morphology
  • def The lipid bilayer surrounding a vacuole that
    retains the same shape regardless of cell cycle
    phase. The membrane separates its contents from
    the cytoplasm of the cell.
  • membrane of vacuole

The Proposed Solution
  • We can apply taxon information in a rigorous and
    non-misleading way using relationships
  • is_relevant_for
  • is_only_in
  • applies_to_all

14
  • Relevance
  • is_relevant_to

15
Relevance is_relevant_to
  • This GO term can be used for annotation of this
    taxon.
  • The GO term may not be appropriate for all
    subgroups of this taxon.
  • The GO term may not be appropriate for all
    supergroups of this taxon.

  • Added by curators.
  • Inferred from annotations.

Relevance - Propagation
  • Propagates up the GO.
  • Propagates up the taxon hierarchy.

  • Specificity
  • is_only_in

24
Specificity is_only_in
  • The GO term never applies to species outside of
    this taxon.
  • (The GO terms may apply to only some subtaxa of
    the taxon, and not all.)

  • These beaks were produced by convergent evolution
  • The two beak development processes are the same.

  • is_relevant_for Anas platyrhynchos

37
  • Validity
  • applies_to_all

38
Validity applies_to_all
  • The GO term applies to all subtaxa of a given
    taxon.
  • (The GO term may also apply to species outside of
    the taxon.)

Validity applies_to_all
Homoiothermy is exhibited by all subtaxa of
the taxon Mammalia.

40
Validity applies_to_all
Homoiothermy is absent in many of the taxonomic
groups outside of Mammalia.

Validity applies_to_all
with some exceptions
Homoiothermy is also present in birds, tuna fish,
and honey bees.
