Gene Ontology Annotations for a Gene Product (QuickGO)

quickgo/go-annotations

Returns the Gene Ontology annotations (GOA) of one gene product, such as a UniProt accession like P04637: per annotation the GO term id, aspect, qualifier, evidence code and reference, the group that assigned it, its date, taxon id and gene symbol, with the total hit count and page info. Term names are not filled in, so look a term id up for its name. Gene Ontology Consortium data (CC BY 4.0) as served by Eden Engine through QuickGO; not an official EMBL-EBI product.

// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })

// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "quickgo/go-annotations" })

// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "quickgo/go-annotations" })

// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "quickgo/go-annotations", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "quickgo/go-annotations", input: { /* ... */ } })

// 5. settle: the call is charged when it finishes, nothing to do
