We thank Dr. Fernando Otero for his help in the use of software for computing the set of all GO terms that are ancestors of a specific set of GO terms, in the procedure used for the creation of the GO term-based attributes.
It then assigns a P value using statistical modeling to compare the similarity score obtained for the specific set of phenotypic terms entered into the distribution of similarity scores obtained using randomly chosen HPO term combinations.
QuickGO not only filters annotations to a specific set of GO terms, but also allows the reaction or adaption of GO slims.
The articles and data used in this study were limited by the results obtained through the use of a specific set of search terms at the time of searching the journal database Scopus.
This is based on the general assumption that for a specific set of GO terms identified by each measure, the more functionally homogenous the set is, the more reliable the measure is.
This programme offers food commodities on a grant basis in conjunction with a specific set of long-term development activities by the recipient country.
In their active GTP-loaded state, Ras G-proteins can transmit signals by binding to a specific set of proteins termed effectors.
Each cell type achieves and performs its function by employing a specific set of genes, recently termed its molecular fingerprint [ 6, 8, 9].
The incompatibility reaction is associated with regulation of gene expression occurring at least in part at the transcriptional level and leading to the induction of a specific set of genes originally termed idi genes (induced during incompatibility) (Bourges et al. 1998).
EU projects, for example, tend to come with a very specific set of bureaucratic management requirements, in terms of funding regulations, mandatory reporting on progress, pre-agreed milestones and deliverables et cetera.
