http://sequenceontology.org/

A collaborative ontology for the definition of sequence features used in biological sequence annotation. SO was initially developed by the Gene Ontology Consortium. Contributors to SO include the GMOD community, model organism database groups such as WormBase, FlyBase, Mouse Genome Informatics group, and institutes such as the Sanger Institute and the EBI. Input to SO is welcomed from the sequence annotation community. The OBO revision is available here: http://sourceforge.net/p/song/svn/HEAD/tree/ SO includes different kinds of features which can be located on the sequence. Biological features are those which are defined by their disposition to be involved in a biological process. Biomaterial features are those which are intended for use in an experiment such as aptamer and PCR_product. There are also experimental features which are the result of an experiment. SO also provides a rich set of attributes to describe these features such as polycistronic and maternally imprinted. The Sequence Ontologies use the OBO flat file format specification version 1.2, developed by the Gene Ontology Consortium. The ontology is also available in OWL from Open Biomedical Ontologies. This is updated nightly and may be slightly out of sync with the current obo file. An OWL version of the ontology is also available. The resolvable URI for the current version of SO is http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/so.owl.

http://oboedit.org/

OBO-Edit is an open source, platform-independent application written in Java for viewing and editing any OBO format ontologies. OBO-Edit is a graph-based tool; its emphasis on the overall graph structure of an ontology provides a friendly interface for biologists, and makes OBO-Edit excellent for the rapid generation of large ontologies focusing on relationships between relatively simple classes. The UI components are cleanly separated from the data model and data adapters, so these can be reused in other applications. The oboedit foward-chaining reasoner can also be used independently (for example, for traversing ontology graphs). OBO-Edit uses the OBO format flat file. See the GO wiki, http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/OBO-Edit:_Getting_the_Source_Code, for instructions on downloading the source code. Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://www.geneontology.org/GO.refgenome.shtml

The GO Consortium coordinates an effort to maximize and optimize the GO annotation of a large and representative set of key genomes, known as ''reference genomes''. The goal of the Reference Genome Annotation project is to completely annotate twelve reference genomes so that those annotations may be used to effectively seed the automatic annotation efforts of other genomes. With more and more genomes being sequenced, we are in the middle of an explosion of genomic information. The limited resources to manually annotate the growing number of sequenced genomes imply that automatic annotation will be the method of choice for many groups. The Reference Genome project has two primary goals: to increase the depth and breadth of annotations for genes in each of the organisms in the project, and to create data sets and tools that enable other genome annotation efforts to infer GO annotations for homologous genes in their organisms. In addition, the project has several important incidental benefits, such as increasing annotation consistency across genome databases, and providing important improvements to the GO''s logical structure and biological content. All GO annotations from this project are included in the gene association files that each group submits to GO. Annotations can also be viewed using the GO search engine and browser AmiGO. Annotated families can be viewed with the homolog set browser.

Gene Ontology for Motifs (GOMO) is an alignment- and threshold-free comparative genomics approach for assigning functional roles to DNA regulatory motifs from DNA sequence. The algorithm detects associations between a user-specified DNA regulatory motif (expressed as a position weight matrix; PWM) and Gene Ontology terms. The original method for predicting the roles of transcription factors (TFs starts with a PWM motif describing the DNA-binding affinity of the TF. GOMO uses the PWM to score the promoter region of each gene in the genome for its likelihood to be bound by the TF. The resulting ''''affinity'''' scores are then used to test each term in the Gene Ontology for association with high-scoring genes. The algorithm was subsequently extended to leverage conserved signals using multiple, related species in a comparative approach, which greatly improves the resulting annotations. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://vortex.cs.wayne.edu/projects.htm#OE2GO

Onto-Express is a web-based tool in the Onto-Tools suite that performs automated function profiling for a list of differentially expressed genes. However, Onto-Express does not support functional profiling for the organisms that do not have annotations in public domain, or use of custom (i.e. user-defined) ontologies. This limitation is also true for most of the other existing tools for functional profiling, which means that researchers working with uncommon organisms and/or new annotations or ontologies may be forced to construct such profiles manually. Onto-Express To Go (OE2GO) is a new tool added to the Onto-Tools ensemble to address these issues. OE2GO is built on top of OE to leverage its existing functionality. In OE2GO, the users now have an option to use either the Onto-Tools database as a source of functional annotations or provide their own annotations in a separate file. Currently, OE2GO supports annotation file in the Gene Ontology format. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosystems/

Database that provides access to biological systems and their component genes, proteins, and small molecules, as well as literature describing those biosystems and other related data throughout Entrez. A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. BioSystem records list and categorize components, such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems. A number of databases provide diagrams showing the components and products of biological pathways along with corresponding annotations and links to literature. This database was developed as a complementary project to (1) serve as a centralized repository of data; (2) connect the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system; and (3) facilitate computation on biosystems data. The NCBI BioSystems Database currently contains records from several source databases: KEGG, BioCyc (including its Tier 1 EcoCyc and MetaCyc databases, and its Tier 2 databases), Reactome, the National Cancer Institute's Pathway Interaction Database, WikiPathways, and Gene Ontology (GO). It includes several types of records such as pathways, structural complexes, and functional sets, and is desiged to accomodate other record types, such as diseases, as data become available. Through these collaborations, the BioSystems database facilitates access to, and provides the ability to compute on, a wide range of biosystems data. If you are interested in depositing data into the BioSystems database, please contact them.
