NAME

GO::Parsers::go_assoc_parser     - syntax parsing of GO gene-association flat files

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

do not use this class directly; use GO::Parser

This generates Stag/XML event streams from GO association files. Examples of these files can be found at http://www.geneontology.org, an example of lines from an association file:

SGD     S0004660        AAC1            GO:0005743      SGD:12031|PMID:2167309 TAS             C       ADP/ATP translocator    YMR056C gene    taxon:4932 20010118

See http://www.geneontology.org/GO.annotation.shtml#file

See http://www.godatabase.org/dev/xml/dtd/go_assoc-parser-events.dtd For the DTD of the event stream that is generated

The following stag-schema describes the events that are generated in parsing an assoc file:

(assocs
 (dbset+
   (proddb "s")
   (prod+
     (prodacc "s")
     (prodsymbol "s")
     (prodtype "s")
     (prodtaxa "i")
     (assoc+
       (assocdate "i")
       (source_db "s")
       (termacc "s")
       (is_not "i")
       (aspect "s")
       (evidence+
         (evcode "s")
         (ref "s"))))))
