Gene Ontology annotation based on UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot keyword mapping

UniProt-GOA; 2012

Gene Ontology annotation of virus proteins based on UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot keyword mapping. The UniProtKB keyword resource can be found at https://www.uniprot.org/keywords/. UniProtKB keywords are assigned to UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entries by UniProt curators as part of the UniProtKB manual curation process. UniProtKB keywords are also automatically assigned to UniProtKB/TrEMBL entries from sequence databases and/or by the UniProt automatic annotation program. When a UniProtKB keyword describes a concept that is within the scope of the Gene Ontology, a mapping is manually made to the corresponding GO term. The translation table between GO terms and UniProtKB keywords is maintained by the EBI GOA team and available at http://www.geneontology.org/external2go/uniprotkb_kw2go. Note that this pipeline was formally run for all species, but is now restricted to viruses (NCBITaxon:10239).
