This initiative focused on the annotation of Parkinson's disease-relevant proteins and was funded by a 3-year Parkinson's UK grant (G-1307) from January 2014 to December 2016.
The Parkinson's UK-funded GO annotations have facilitated the detailed and high-quality annotation of over 800 Parkinson's disease-relevant genes, providing . There are many ways in with the impact of our curation on data analysis and annotation resources can be demonstrated. Annotations contributed by this project to the GO Consortium dataset are attributed to ParkinsonsUK-UCL.
For this initiative we created two priority gene lists.
- A high-priority set of 48 Parkinson's disease-relevant genes were selected based on genetic linkage or association studies (see table below).
Our longer Parkinson's-relevant priority list includes 329 gene products. These were chosen based on their interaction with high-priority gene products or because of their role in Parkinson's disease-related biological processes
Priority Parkinson's processes
The following processes were prioritised, following discussions with experts in the field. These processes are considered to have important roles in Parkinson's disease.
High-priority set of Parkinson's disease-relevant genes
Genes in this list were prioritised for comprehensive annotation using GO because variants in these genes have been implicated as having a role in Parkinson's disease, either in published linkage or association studies.
