Section contents

• Reference Genome Annotation Project: aims to completely annotate twelve reference genomes so that those annotations may be used to effectively seed the automatic annotation efforts of other genomes. The Reference Genome Annotation Project is funded by the GO Consortium grant from the NIH Human Genome Research Institute.
• Cardiovascular Annotation: improving annotation and ontology content for cardiovascular processes and gene products; see the project web pages for more information. Funded by the British Heart Foundation.
• Renal Annotation: improving annotation and ontology content for the renal system. Funded by Kidney Research UK.
• Asthma disease and treatment: improving annotation and ontology content to describe asthma-relevant processes. Funding application submitted; decision 29th May 2009.

Community Annotation Wikis

A series of wiki pages have been developed to enable the scientific community to review GO annotation of their genes of interest and provide additional information to guide annotation efforts for these genes.
