Gene Ontology Browser. The new MGD ontology browsers have an autocomplete search feature and display linked matching terms. Shown here is an example from the Gene Ontology Browser. GO term names, definitions, IDs, superclasses (parent terms) and term relations are listed and terms are shown in a tree view. The example shown here is a search for ‘cell adhesion’ showing all terms containing this text string. The subclass ‘chorio-allantoic fusion’ is selected. Different branches may be viewed by clicking on the different parent terms under the defintion. Each biological term is connected to annotated genes via a link in the tree view following the term name; in this example, ten different genes are annotated to this biological process term. Other terms with subclasses are expanded by clicking on the triangle toggle to the left of the term name.
