That's incorrect terminology.
Because mouse models are widely used for functional studies, the confusion of nomenclature and incorrect ortholog assignment has led to incorrect conclusions and misinterpretation in several studies, not only involving mouse-to-human ortholog assignments but also in mouse-to-mouse carboxylesterase identification.
In 1978, the name was declared nomenclaturally incorrect according to the rules of International Code of Botanical Nomenclature.
This review illustrates frequent problems of carbohydrate moieties in wwPDB entries, such as nomenclature issues, incorrect N-glycan core structures, missing or erroneous linkages, or poor glycan geometry, and describes the carbohydrate-specific validation tools that are designed to identify such problems.
Difficulties in the name to structure conversion are mixed nomenclatures and formally incorrect IUPAC and chemical names instead of correct nomenclature.
Others were modified by the P450 nomenclature committee for possible incorrect exon calls, gene calls or fused ORFs (see Additional file 1).
This ambiguity is apparent from the observation that 12% of publications on human mature miRNAs use outdated or incorrect miRNA names, when referencing to nomenclature conventions applicable at the time of publication.
Another program is ACDName by ACDLabs, which generates chemical structures from systematic names, derivatives, semi-systematic and trivial names as well as incorrect names, not strictly following the nomenclature (ACDLabs, 2007), but it focuses more on correct names than the program Name= Struct by CambridgeSoft (CambridgeSoft, 2007; Eigner-Pitto et al., 2007).
Ganesha, the God of Beginnings and Remover of Obstacles, is seated in a posture my kids call crisscross applesauce, what I once called "Indian style" but which, despite this instance of fairly precise nomenclature, is now considered politically incorrect.
However, there has been significant confusion in the nomenclature of these genes/enzymes resulting in incorrect ortholog assignments.
