Note, some of the existing annotations GO:1904622 | negative regulation of actin-dependent ATPase activity Clayton JE et al. (2010) GO:0120080 | negative regulation of microfilament motor activity Clayton JE et al. (2010) will be made redundant by https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/issues/18664
Also, since the ATPase activity is regulated via indirectly via affecting negative regulation of actin filament binding (The myosin ATPase motor is actin-dependent), some "regulation of function" annotations may not be required.
This is the model:
looks like mostly GO ontology fodder ...
Yes but I want to have a bit more of an idea what is required first. Once it's clearer what the issues are I will open a ticket on the GO tracker.
But "competitive inhibition" seems that it is a molecular function, not a process?
Hmm. To me it doesn't feel like a molecular function or a process. It's a phenomenon, and seems more analogous to a phenotype ...
Isn't 'competitive inhibition of binding' the same as sequestering ?
No. Sequestering keeps X in one place to prevent it going somewhere else. Competitive binding is where X or Y can bind Z, but not both at once.
It doesn't make a lot of sense to say "competitive inhibition of binding" because "competitive inhibition" is a concept relevant to catalytic activities (and is as opposed to "noncompetitive inhibition" and "uncompetitive inhibition", which are different from competitive and from each other; if you need me to I'll dredge up the distinctions).
@pgaudet (transferred from #2579):
It seems like 'actin sequestering' is being used in the scientific literature, e.g.: https://www.tebu-bio.com/blog/2015/02/23/capping-bundling-sequestering-the-role-of-actin-binding-proteins/
For actin, "sequestering" is used specifically for binding to actin monomers (aka G-actin), to prevent them being added to actin filaments.
Yeah I remember. I got a biochemistry degree. Don't tell anyone - I forgot it all.
Nothing seems quite right, I find this all the time with "binding inhibitors" there's often no good way to describe this MF.
sigh...

These annotations seem as though they should be described as molecular functions but it is not clear how to do this.
@ValWood But "competitive inhibition" seems that it is a molecular function, not a process? @pgaudet this has cropped up quite a lot. It seems that we need a way to capture inhibition of binding in GO? currently described as "negative regulation of actin filament binding"
@pgaudet Isn't 'competitive inhibition of binding' the same as sequestering ?
@ValWood For example in this paper: https://www.pombase.org/reference/PMID:20705471 https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0960982210009280 microfilament motor s actin-dependent cdc8 binds actin and displaces myo1 (this seems to be competitive inhibition with actin as the competing substrate)
Sequestering seems odd in some contexts though. This would be actin filament sequestering? I will see if this fits other examples I came across though. I guess this example can only be captured by a full GO -cam where cdc8 "sequesters" actin -> negatively regulates myo1(actin binding)
