The
GO_Annotation dataset contains genes which are annotated with
neuro-related GO terms. In psychiatric genetics as well as other
complex disease studies, investigators have often selected
functional candidates falling under the heading referred to as
"the usual suspects" such as the genes suggested by
neurotransmitter psychopharmacology. Searching genes by
appropriate GO terms is useful and efficient for this purpose. We
collected a list of GO terms related to neuro-developmental
recommended by our expert panel and restrict these GO terms with
their level higher than 3. The number of such kind of GO terms
annotated to a gene is then taken as the score of this gene. In
total, we collected 1947 genes currently in the GO_Annotation
dataset.
