The Molecule Role Ontology: an ontology for annotation of signal transduction pathway molecules in the scientific literature
2004
In general, it is not easy to specify a single sequence identity for each molecule name
that appears in a pathway in the scientific literature. A molecule name may stand
for concepts of various granularities, from concrete objects such as H-Ras and ERK1
to abstract concepts or categories such as Ras and MAPK. Typically, the relations
among molecule names derive a hierarchical structure; without a proper way to
handle this knowledge, it becomes ever more difficult to develop a reliable pathway
database. This paper describes an ontology that is designed to annotate molecules
in the scientific literature on signal transduction pathways.
