Remove is_a link between 'defense response to other organism' and 'immune response' #22173

Open cmungall opened 3 years ago

Read all comments on this topic in #16298 before commenting. I think this is the immediate course of action agreed upon (in 2018!) on that ticket.

Immediate course of action:

  1. Remove is_a link between 'defense response to other organism' and 'immune response'
  2. Examine all descendants of DRtOO and determine if they should be placed under 'immune response' (or ideally a more precise term)
    • E.g. CRISPR-CAS - No

There is a lot more to talk about here, but I suggest limiting this issue to be the immediate action above. We have an issue about CRISPR-CAS #16423 -- the defense response hierarchy seems pretty problematic to me on multiple levels but let's talk about that elsewhere

I had added the relation between 'defense response to other organism' and 'immune response' here https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/issues/18737#issuecomment-779706661 (but without explanation, probably during a discussion). Now removed.

We should discuss this on a multiorg call, also with @addiehl
