Final Renal GO Annotation Newsletter (April 2012)
Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 2012-04-20 00:50Welcome to the final newsletter in the series. The Kidney Research UK funded Renal GO Annotation Initiative has now ended and the aims of the initiative have been achieved in providing the biomedical research community with an information-rich resource, which can be used to assist the rapid evaluation of new experimental data. A process-specific approach has led to improvements to both the ontology to describe renal processes (in particular, renal system development) and to the annotation of renal-specific gene products.

New GO Annotation Publication in PLoS ONE
Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 2012-01-06 08:01We are pleased to announce the publication of our latest paper, a collaboration between the UCL-based Cardiovascular Gene Ontology Annotation Initiative (http://www.ucl.ac.uk/cardiovasculargeneontology/) and the UniProt-GOA Renal Gene Ontology Initiative (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/GOA/kidney/), which describes the benefit of performing focused annotation on proteins implicated in specific organ development and function. We show that such annotation efforts lead to improved interpretation of results from cardiovascular-related microarray datasets.
