2015, Vol. 43, Database issue | The Gene Ontology Consortium
The Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium (GOC) has made significant improvements and expansions to its ontology, including the addition of new terms for cilia-related terms, cell-cycle terms, and multicellular organism processes. They have also implemented new tools for generating ontology terms based on logical rules and templates, and increased the use of logical definitions. The GOC has launched a new website that serves as a portal to GO data, offering users the ability to perform GO enrichment analysis, search for terms, annotations, and metadata across multiple species using the AmiGO 2 browser. The GOC encourages community input and welcomes contributions from researchers in various biological areas to further improve the Gene Ontology.The Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium (GOC) has made significant improvements and expansions to its ontology, including the addition of new terms for cilia-related terms, cell-cycle terms, and multicellular organism processes.
