[Bioperl-l] Entrez Gene and bioperl-db

[Sean Davis]

Annie,

I have heard rumors that the gene ontology and cdd stuff are going to  
be in the refseq entries rather than a "gene2go" file, but I haven't  
seen direct confirmation of this.  If you look in the CDS section of  
some of the refseq entries  
(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi? 
db=nucleotide&val=56550106 as an example), you will see the gene  
ontology information there.  I honestly don't know how this is handled  
by bioperl-db....  Also, I wish I could say I KNEW what NCBI was doing  
here so that we could all plan, but I don't.
