[FEATURE REQUEST] <Turn Off GO annotation> #280

Closed greg-harhay closed 9 months ago

greg-harhay commented 12 months ago

Could you provide an option/switch to turn off GO annotation? Such a switch is not described in the output of

pgap.py --help

Thank you.

Greg

Thank you for you report, Gregory!

Currently we do not provide an option to turn off the GO annotation.

I suppose an adventorous user could try a hacky way to do that by editing away GO lines in our SQLITE3 database of PFM attributes...

Hi Azat, thanks for the quick reply. Bing and Bard searches for turning off the GO annotation in PGAP suggest that this option was available in the past, but then again, those might be AI hallucinations.

Thanks for letting us know, Gregory!

Can you explain why you would be interested in turning off GO annotation? This is the first time we receive this request. Thanks!

greg-harhay commented 12 months ago

Sure, I want to add my own GO annotations and EC numbers and compare to the NCBI annotated genomes.

thibaudnis commented 11 months ago

We are not planning to add a switch for GO and EC in PGAP unless we perceive there is a wide need for this feature. May I ask what alternative method you plan on using?

greg-harhay commented 11 months ago

I am developing a custom approach. If it offers advantages to existing annotation, I'll publish it.
