Models
Facilitate the process of building biological models with causal statements
Representation of causal statements
AKT1 FOXO3
Down-regulates activity of
Causal interaction between two biological entities (gene, RNA, protein,
complexes, etc…)
Representation of causal statements
Is it a direct or indirect
Interaction?
Which molecular function
is down-regulated?
What is FOXO3’s state?
(active/inactive)
What is the regulation type?
(phosphorylation, acetylation,
dephosphorylation)
How to represent meaningful causal interactions?
When and where does
this interaction occurs?
AKT1 FOXO3
Down-regulates activity of
Representation of causal statements
Entity – Source (Regulator) / Target (Regulated)
● ID – ex:causalDB:FOXO3
● Reference ID - HGNC; Uniprot; Entrez
● For Complex: ComplexPortal ID?
● For Families?
● Name – ex:FOXO3
● Molecule type - gene, RNA, protein, complex
● Acting entity – Reference ID
● Molecular function – GO:MF
● State – active / inactive
Research ideas on information that should be ideally encoded
Causal Relationship
● Regulation type – down-regulates
● Mechanism - PSI MOD?
● Modified residue – Tyr@P202
● Interaction depth – 0 (direct); 1; 2; etc…
● Text – Scicura (http://scicura.org/info.html)
● Provenance – ex:Reactome
● Evidence – ECO
● Confidence score?
Controlled Vocabulary and Ontologies – essential to make data sustainable, shareable and interoperable
Context
● Species – TaxID
● Tissue type – Brenda Tissue Ontology (BTO), Uberon?
● Cell type – BTO, Cell Line Ontology (CLO)?
● Experimental conditions – if evidence is experimental
● Tissue / Cell state
