Question about map_to_slim #290

Open juanjo255 opened 2 months ago

Hi developers,

Thanks for this useful tool.

Please, I ask your help to understand a concept. I have some GO terms retrieved from InterProScan functional annotation and I want to make some plots with number of genes in higher depths. However when I map the genes using map_to_slim from 10.000 genes having a GO term, map_to_slim return only 1600 genes. What could be the reason for this behavior?

Thank you very much.
