[Go] Alert: proposal to obsolete two molecular function terms, annotations affected

[Tanya Berardini]

Hello,

The proposal has been made to obsolete:

epidermal growth factor receptor activating ligand activity GO:0005155
epidermal growth factor receptor inhibiting ligand activity,   GO:0005156

GO:0005156 is not used in any annotations.  GO:0005155 is used in the
following annotations:

gene_association.fb.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      0       3       3

gene_association.goa_chicken.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      1       1       2

gene_association.goa_cow.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      1       0       1

gene_association.goa_human.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      0       3       3

gene_association.goa_uniprot.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      4       3       7

gene_association.mgi.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      0       1       1

gene_association.rgd.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      0       4       4

gene_association.wb.gz
GO ID   IEA     non-IEA total
GO:0005155      0       6       6


The terms are not used in any mappings and are not included in any subset
maintained in GO.

Both terms are undefined and represent both a biological process and a
molecular function.  Gene products annotated to GO:0005155 may be annotated
to the parent term 'epidermal growth factor receptor binding'.  Annotators
may also consider the MF terms: 'transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine
kinase activator activity',  'transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase
inhibitor activity', and the BP term 'regulation of epidermal growth factor
receptor activity.'

*** Unless objections are received by April 1st,
     we will assume that you agree to this change. ***

Thanks,

Tanya, Midori and David
