[Go] Annotation file format question

Hi All,

I have a question about allowed characters for Column 15 (Assigned_by)  
of the gene_association file. We are getting ready to load some  
predicted GO annotations made for yeast genes from an external source  
- bioPIXIE/MEFIT (Princeton University). They would like us to enter  
the source as bioPIXIE/MEFIT (with a slash between biopixie and MEFIT).
So far I have not seen anybody enter a DB/group name with punctuation  
(e.g. slashes or hyphens) and I did not see anything regarding this in  
the documentation.  I would like to know if the source can be entered  
with a slash in that column?

Thanks for your input,

Rama
