Hi,
One of our tools (Generic GO Term Mapper), is currently nonfunctional,
and our current best guess is that it may be problem with the ontology?
Error message contains :
"There is an error in the obo file, where the relationship between GO:
0042711 and one or more of its parents is not correctly defined.
Please check the obo file. The program is unable to continue."
When I check the OBO file we have downloaded, I see that
[Term]
id: GO:0042711
name: maternal behavior
namespace: biological_process
def: "Female behaviors associated with the care and rearing of
offspring." [GOC:curators]
exact_synonym: "maternal behaviour" []
is_a: GO:0060746 ! parental behavior
[Term]
id: GO:0060746
name: parental behavior
namespace: cellular_component
def: "A reproductive behavior in which a parent cares for and rears
offspring." [GOC:dph]
is_a: GO:0033057 ! reproductive behavior in a multicellular organism
I don't see parental behavior in AmiGO and parental behavior appears
to be in the wrong aspect?
Just letting you know,
John
