Almost forgot, I also think it would be useful to have another term related to these two.
term name: hinge region between urothelial plaques of apical plasma membrane Def: A narrow rim of non-thickened membrane in between urothelial plaques in apical plasma membrane. def dbxref: GOC:krc, PMID:21468280, PMID:21887288 is_a: GO:0098590 plasma membrane region part_of: GO:0016324 apical plasma membrane
@krchristie I'd be happy to chat about these. They seem reasonable to me, but I think we can improve on the definitions a bit to make them more compliant with the way we create standard genus-differentia defs. For example something like this:
term name: hinge region between urothelial plaques of apical plasma membrane Def: A region of the apical plasma membrane consisting of a narrow rim of non-thickened membrane between urothelial plaques. def dbxref: GOC:krc, PMID:21468280, PMID:21887288 is_a: GO:0098590 plasma membrane region part_of: GO:0016324 apical plasma membrane
Is it worth it to create a generic urothelial plaque, a fusiform vesicle urothelial plaque and an apical membrane urothelial plaque? Putting on a LEGO hat, do the gene products function in the vesicle or is it a mechanism to get them to the cell surface. This would be an interesting example to model.

Added two additional terms and also a def dbxref to previous term:

I am annotating PMID:22323295 and need a couple new terms to deal with urothelial plaques.
term name: apical plasma membrane urothelial plaque => the plaques also occur in fusiform vesicles in biologically relevant ways, so I thought it might be best to specify the location as well as the parentage I have here is only true when when the plaque is in the apical membrane Def: A scallop-shaped plaque, also referred to as an asymmetric unit membrane (AUM), found in the apical plasma membrane of urothelial superficial (umbrella) cells which form a a barrier to the passage of water and soluble toxic compounds found in urine. The plaques are thickened regions of membrane composed of uroplakin transmembrane proteins which form a crystalline array. def dbxref: GOC:krc, PMID:21468280, PMID:21887288 is_a: GO:0005887 integral component of plasma membrane => could be more specific if we also create term for "integral component of apical plasma membrane", might be better for logical def? part_of: GO:0016324 apical plasma membrane exact synonym: asymmetric unit membrane related synonym: AUM

@ukemi - I am willing to do these, pending discussion. I have a couple questions to run by you first.
