Abstract
AbstractThe Sequence Ontology is undergoing reform to meet the standards of the OBO Foundry. Here we report some of the incremental changes and improvements made to SO. We also propose new relationships to better define the mereological, spatial and temporal aspects of biological sequence.
Highlights
The Sequence Ontology[1] was begun in 2003 as a means to provide the terms and relations that obtain between terms, to describe biological sequence
The Sequence Ontology provides a forum for the genomic annotation community to discuss and agree on terminology to describe their biological sequence
The updates to the SO, based on OBO Foundry recommendations have strengthened the ontology as a tool for reasoning
Summary
The Sequence Ontology[1] was begun in 2003 as a means to provide the terms and relations that obtain between terms, to describe biological sequence. Introduction The Sequence Ontology[1] was begun in 2003 as a means to provide the terms and relations that obtain between terms, to describe biological sequence. The Sequence Ontology provides a forum for the genomic annotation community to discuss and agree on terminology to describe their biological sequence. Features were related by their genomic position.
