@Antonialock It looks like the association is coming in via this paper: https://europepmc.org/abstract/MED/19486448 @sylvainpoux - what do you think about this one?
Hi, annotation is correct here. ACY3 interacts with hepatitis C virus/HCV core protein (PubMed:19486448).
Okay, thanks very much @sylvainpoux I'll go ahead and close this ticket, then.
But we wouldn't make this as a GO annotation for the human gene would we?
Well, if you think that reporting an interaction between a host and a pathogen is useless, we might remove this association, but we have many cases like that$ I think it's useful
It is useful information, for sure, but it isn't really within the scope of GO?
Unfortunately the waters got very muddy in the GO branch for describing processes pathogenesis and interspecies interactions.
We should keep this ticket open. Needs general discussion, at a future consortium meeting. Leave the annotation as it is for the time being.
(as an aside we are currently working with PHIBase to create an ontology for pathogen -host interactions phenotypes and their contribution to virulence and disease aren't normal GO processes)
For reference, here is a link to a related discussion on the go-ontology tracker that is still open:
@ValWood
This is an example of the cases we have been discussing recently @pgaudet
ACY3 is annotated to viral process by KW mapping KW-0945
ACY3 function: Plays an important role in deacetylating mercapturic acids in kidney proximal tubules. Also acts on N-acetyl-aromatic amino acids
I dont get how this KW mapping is derived?
