[Annotation] [Refgenome] Cell fractions

Again, dangerous because of different methods of preparation. I still 
think the easiest thing to do is that if there is no better or other 
localization data, leave them. I would not "map" them.  They are 
suggestions as to where one might look with other methods. The placement 
of the graph for these terms holds true, I would hope , that they are in 
the cell  (cell part).
