Complete functional annotation of genomes is a powerful tool for researchers; however, such annotation is a time-consuming task limited by the availability of experimental data. The function of genes for which there is no experimental data can often be predicted via comparison to related, annotated sequences of known function. We describe here the Reference Genome project, an effort from the Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium to fully annotate twelve genomes to rigorous standards: human, plus eleven organisms that are important models in biomedical research, including mouse, fly, zebrafish, yeast and _E. coli_. To achieve this, we examine existing experimentally based annotations in a phylogenetic context in order to infer the function(s) of ancestral proteins... |

This workshop has brought together representatives of groups developing catalogues of bio-resources and its aims were twofold:

1. Ensure that BioSharing (www.biosharing.org), a catalogue of minimal information checklists, terminologies and exchange formats (hereafter called standards) and policies, complements and links to existing catalogues of tools and databases, and also to publications and related material;

2. Outline the technical implementations of the bioDBcore checklist (www.biodbcore.org), the proposed uniform system for describing the catalogues of tools and databases, in particular, how to ensure (bi-directional) linking to the BioSharing catalogue.... |

Organized by members of the BioSharing initiative (www.biosharing.org) and the International Society for Biocuration (ISB, www.biocurator.org), this workshop brought together developers, curators, journal editors and researchers to discuss the growing number of (closely related efforts) developing to catalogues of tools, databases, related data and publications.

The focus on the workshop was a strawman uniform system for describing these bio-resources (www.biodbcore.org), in particular, indicating in a consistent manner which community-defined standards (minimal information checklists, terminologies and exchange formats) they implement (www.biosharing.org/standards).

Biocuration is a difficult mission: biological data is highly heterogeneous, and there are few areas where guidelines for data preservation and exchange exist. This has hampered the speed, quantity and diversity of data possible to capture. Hence, a major challenge for the biocuration community is to explore innovative ways to capture, represent and display information. It is also essential to increase the involvement of researchers, publishers and funding agencies in this process. I will discuss the work of the International Society for Biocuration to build a community of biocurators to achieve these goals. |
