Access to the GO Subversion Repository

Subversion is a version control system; the software can be downloaded from Apache Subversion if it is not installed on your computer.

The GO subversion repository can be also viewed online using the viewvc repository browser.

GO SVN basics

The GO ontology file is stored in the trunk directory of the GO SVN repository:

GO Database Schema Autodoc

This is the GO LEAD Database Schema documentation, in Autodoc format. Everything on this page was automatically generated from the schema metadata. For more background on the schema, please read GO Database documentation.

note on modules: The tables are partitioned into modules for the purposes of Autodoc. These modules are invisible in the actual instantiations of the database, so the table "go_graph.term" is just simply "term".

The GO Consortium implements a number of automated checks to check the quality of the annotations submitted to the GO database. These checks are detailed on the annotation quality control checks page.

Issue the following commands on your machine to create a directory for the GO CVS repository, check out the contents, and update your copy.

user% cd myDirectory

where myDirectory is the directory where you would like to store the GO repository and user% is your command line prompt.

user% mkdir go

In these pages you will find the gene association files submitted by members of the Gene Ontology Consortium (Annotations), the various versions of Gene Ontology available for download (Ontology), and mappings from the GO to a number of external vocabularies also built for genome annotation (Mappings).
