GOLOCUSID2GO {GO} | R Documentation |
This data set describes associations between Entrez Gene identifiers and GO identifiers as reported by NCBI. The format is an R environment mapping Entrez Gene ids to a list of GO ids that are associated with it. In addition to the GO id, the GO ontology category and the evidence code (the reason for the association) is given.
Each Entrez Gene id is mapped to a list of lists. The names on the outer list are GO ids. Each inner list consists of three named elements: GOID, Ontology, and Evidence.
The GOID element matches the GO id named in the outer list and is
included for convenience when processing the data using lapply
.
The Ontology element indicates which of the three Gene Ontology categories this identifier belongs to. The categories are biological process (BP), cellular component (CC), and molecular function (MF).
The Evidence element contains a code indicating what kind of evidence supports the association of the GO id to the Entrez Gene id. The evidence codes in use include:
IMP - inferred from mutant phenotype
IGI - inferred from genetic interaction
IPI - inferred from physical interaction
ISS - inferred from sequence similarity
IDA - inferred from direct assay
IEP - inferred from expression pattern
IEA - inferred from electronic annotation
TAS - traceable author statement
NAS - non-traceable author statement
ND - no biological data available
IC - inferred by curator
Entrez Gene ids for which no GO associations exist are left out of the environment.
