Improve modelling of protein isoforms on Wikidata #93

Open lubianat opened 1 year ago

lubianat commented 1 year ago

e.g. Alternative splice isoforms for TP53 Gene UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: P04637-1 P04637-2 P04637-3 P04637-4 P04637-5 P04637-6 P04637-7 P04637-8 P04637-9

These are not currently available on Wikidata.

Maybe they should be created as subclasses of current protein items?

How proteoforms should be represented?

Should current items for proteins have multiple UniprotIDs with applies to part - isoform?

I think isoforms should have their own items, as this enables more comprehensive encoding of information.

I think only human and animal-model isoforms should be on Wikidata (otherwise it will bloat the database)
