Subject: [transport] transmembrane transport process.
Message-ID: <46EE80E4.9000304@sanger.ac.uk>



I have requested a  biological process term
'transmembrane transport' so that transmembrane transport  performed by 
'transmembrane transporters' can be distinguished at the broad level 
from other types of transport (nucleocytoplasmic, vesicle-mediated, 
protein targeting, microtubule based movement etc), as this will be 
useful for genome wide analysis (at least it will for mine). It's a real 
limitation that there is no process grouping for this as it's impossible 
to separate out the different types of transport without some very 
complicated querying.

The SF entry is here. Does anybody see any potential problems?

Thanks

Val

Jen, perhaps if there are no objections we can implement this next week  
while we are at Princeton if we get time?

Hi Val,

Great idea. :-) I don't think there will be time to implement in 
Princeton but we can do it right after.
