hematopoietic cell proliferation #6771

Closed gocentral closed 9 years ago

gocentral commented 14 years ago

Hi, would it be possible to create a GO term hematopoietic cell proliferation (based on data from PubMed=15889140), that would link GO:0008283 cell proliferation to GO:0030097 hemopoiesis.

Definition: The multiplication or reproduction of hematopoietic stem cell, resulting in the expansion of a hematopoietic cell population. Hematopoietic cells will differentiate into myeloid and lymphoid cells.

Thanks for your help, Lionel Breuza.

From the paper, and my (admittedly rudimentary) understanding of hematopoiesis, it's the hematopoietic stem cells that proliferate, so we should use "hemopoietic stem cell" (exact synonym: "hematopoietic stem cell") in the term name and definition consistently.

Apart from that, I don't see any problem with adding a new term. I've emailed Alex Diehl at MGI for his comments, especially on parentage.

I agree with Midori's suggestion of "hematopoietic stem cell proliferation" and her placement of the term.

Thanks,

Alex
